‍ People Power Given…read morethe numerous appointments that I've had in over a year at Pinetree Medical Clinic, I've witnessed that the hardworking, friendly and patient (pun unintended) staff here always bring their A-game to work. From Mariah and Sheila at the front desk, to Nurse Practitioners Adrienne Carr-Braint and Romina Urban amongst many others, the medical professionals here have always given me a sense of comfort and security in terms of my health and well-being being in the most capable set of hands. Services & Significance Doctor's visits earlier used to fill me with dread, make me go "meh" or anywhere in between! So, it's unusual and surprising that I now look forward to my routine check-up and consultation sessions, thanks to the fantastic, no-nonsense medical care, advice and referrals that I receive from NP Adrienne. I have immense gratitude plus loads of appreciation and respect for Adrienne - her vast knowledge and experience, empathy, constant help, patience and guidance have helped improve the quality of my life for the better by leaps and bounds over the past many months. My periodic sessions with her have been helping me in identifying and/or addressing some long-standing health issues which earlier never got the attention that was due to them. The amount of personal growth and improvement in health that I've achieved after I started my sessions with Adrienne is amazing - it feels very reassuring that the resolution of my health issues has been prioritized and fast-tracked! Clean Scene The clinic is sparking clean, well-organized with optimal usage of the available space, and tranquil (despite it being right next to a very busy road), so much so that the absence of chaos here is palpable! The reception area has ample seating for patients awaiting their turn, and the consultation rooms are spacious and comfortable. Bang for Your Buck Thanks to MSP and the direct billing to insurance, medical visits have been never felt this wallet-friendly! Add to that the absence of any upselling or shady business, I can rest assured that I will be infected by neither buyer's remorse nor patient's regret! Ease Peasy The place is central, just a block away from two main Skytrain Stations along the Millennium Line, and mere steps away from several bus stops. There is paid street parking upfront and along Glen Dr, but it can be challenging to find a spot during business hours. Tick-Tock Service Clock It's super-easy to manage appointments online or by calling the reception for speedy service. Medications can be conveniently picked up from the Pinetree Pharmacy (shout out to the amazing Amy and Gabbie!) that adjoins the Clinic's reception area, or from any other pharmacies. Final Verdict If health is wealth, then NP Adrienne and Pinetree Medical Clinic are one of the best wealth managers in the business. Hope they keep up the awesome work!

Where do I begin (eye roll)...I can only speak from my experience…read more The front desk staff act like they own the place, and you are bothering them just by being there. They dont speak english properly so they often mess up apointments then blame the patients for their mistakes. You can make an apointment, show up on time, and still be waiting an hour for a doctor. I went there for several years and the front desk staff still didn't pronouce my name correctly, and actually asked me , if I've ever been there before. Seriously? It would seem they suffer from memory loss as well a total lack of accountability. There were advertisements for loosing weight and getting injections everywhere! This clinic did not care about my health or well being, and I wouldn't go back.

Within the first few minutes, I was no longer nervous as the team was very professional and explained the whole procedure to me. They also assessed my skin tone to ensure that they had the right setting to match it and also for the treatment I needed. During the procedure, the aesthetician was really gentle and ensured I was comfortable and also kept me informed of what to expect next. When the procedure was complete, I was given the nicest cooling mask to relax my face. The after care process was also explained to me before I left. My recovery was really quick - my face was a bit red (like I had been exposed to a little too much sun) the rest of the day but the next day, there was no sign I had anything done on it. Was I lucky or was it a job well done? Probably both! I feel pretty good about the whole experience! Thank you, Veronica, Indu and Sara!

I have been following this diet since 2004 and I was very successful till it was introduced as HOME…read morediet after Covid (2020) Initially (2004) I lost 50 lbs for 5 month and was keeping this weight over the next 15 years by visiting the clinic for 1-2 months every year to trim the extra lbs, usually 10 lbs a month. I was an advocate of this diet, I found it easy to follow, very healthy, eating natural food, less carbs, lots of veggies and very happy to be able to continue following the maintenance rules by myself and keeping the weight for the rest of the year. However, during travelling on trips for 2+ weeks I was out of the diet and this was bringing me back to the clinic. I was ok with this option and for 15 years I was able to stick to my average weight. During the last 3 years i tried the Home diet 3 times for 2 months each year and I couldn't lose more than 4 lbs per month/average, provided I was very strict and followed the nurses' suggestions to cut down to 1 fruit instead of 2 , cut out the 2 melba toast , the tomatoes and peppers that are included in the allowable list . This did not help. I consulted with the doctors at the clinic and the answer was, water retention...the last lady doctor said, "i don't know why you are not loosing weight". wow - how competent are the doctors in this clinic? On my request, my diet sheets of may 2022 were forwarded to dr.Bernstein for review and his suggestion was to cut daily intake to 1 fruit, which i have been doing for all these 3 years, obviously my diet sheets were not reviewed (?) The nurse called me twice to find out whether I will purchase another month (this is the only question the clinic is interested in!!!), provided I claimed I was not satisfied with the results and had requested a refund. The Refund request was rejected (of course) and I confirmed I am not purchasing any more packages as the Home diet is not helping me any longer and the doctors don't bother to find out why. Then the clinic sent me an e-mail suggesting I talk to my family doctor and wishing me "good luck" in my weight loss...LOL isn't that ridiculous. As a final note, based on my 18 years of experience with this clinic I would NOT RECOMMEND the HOME Diet - it did not work for me during the last 3 years and I did not get any help from the clinic to reach my goal or find out why it stopped working after 15 successful year - this triggers the question: how is the HOME Diet different from the previous ?
