Third doses of COVID vaccines
 

People aged 18 and above can schedule an appointment for a booster (3rd) dose of the COVID vaccine 84 days (a bit less than 3 months) after their second dose.

​

Due to the most recent increase of COVID cases, we strongly encourage everyone who is eligible to get a third dose of the vaccine.

 

Regardless of the vaccine used for the primary series, Pfizer or Moderna can be used as a booster.  

​

Appointments for the COVID vaccine can be made:

• online at the following link

• 1-833-943-3900

Until further notice, we will NOT be giving COVID vaccines in our office.

​

If you have questions regarding vaccinations in kids, we recommend the following ressources:

​

• FAQs made by the University of Waterloo

• SickKids is also offering a phone consultation service that provides a safe, judgement-free space to have an open conversation about the COVID-19 vaccine

COVID vaccines

COVID VACCINATIONS RECEIVED OUTSIDE OF ONTARIO:

If you live in Ottawa and have received one or more doses of a COVID-19 vaccine outside of the Province of Ontario, you must provide your proof of immunization to Ottawa Public Health at the following link.  


PROOF OF VACCINATION:

To download your enhanced vaccine certificate (with an official QR code), please visit https://covid-19.ontario.ca/get-proof/


COVID VACCINE EXEMPTION LETTERS:

Please be advised that medical exemptions to the COVID vaccine are extremely rare.

As per guidance released by the Chief Medical Officer of Ontario: 

The largest group of individuals who receive a medical exception will be those with severe allergic reactions or anaphylaxis to a previous dose of a COVID-19 vaccine or to any of its components and who have been assessed by an allergist/ immunologist to review methods for possible (re)administration of a COVID-19 vaccine.

Another group of individuals who may receive a medical exemption are those who are delaying their second dose because of a diagnosed episode of myocarditis/pericarditis after receipt of an initial dose of an mRNA vaccine.

 

In order to contain the COVID-19 outbreak, and keep our patients and staff safe, we have implemented the following measures:

​

We ask that you come alone.  If you must be accompanied by someone (such is the case for children or adult dependants), we ask that only one person accompany you. 

​

Masks are mandatory and must be worn while you are in the office.  We will not let you into the clinic without a mask.
