The safety and well-being of our patients, staff and the Penticton community at large is our number one priority. Due to the nature of our work, we are requiring staff and patients wear facemasks during their visit with us, and we ask that you call to reschedule your appointment should you feel unwell. This is to ensure everyone entering our clinic is kept safe and well during their visit. Thank you for your assistance with this!
