Dear Patients,

In order to make our office a safe place for all patients to visit, we will be continuing to require all staff and patients to wear a mask while at our office. If you do not have a mask with you, you will be provided with one upon arrival.

We would strongly encourage all patients to receive a third dose of the COVID Vaccine. This should be given at least two months after the second dose and helps to provide additional protection again severe COVID infection requiring hospitalization. Infectious disease specialists are now referring to the COVID vaccine as a three dose vaccine. You can receive this dose at your pharmacy or Public Health.

We would also encourage patients over the age of 60 to receive a fourth dose of the COVID Vaccine to boost your immune response and provide you with additional protection against serious COVID infection requiring hospitalization. This is recommended five months after the third dose.

If you have any further questions, we would suggest you visit the Guelph Wellington Public Health website or Confused about COVID https://dfcm.utoronto.ca/confused-about-covid which is a website where family doctors answer your questions about COVID.

Thank you and Stay Well!
