  Based on the reviews, I have to say, I am really disappointed in this clinic. My wait time to see doctor wasn't too bad, about 45 minutes. Receptionists were nice. However, in a 3 minute session, where doctor barely listened to my lungs nor took into account that I hadn't had any fever, and have a history of asthma and bronchitis, it was determined that I had a bacterial lung infection - pneumonia. Normally diagnosing bacterial lung infections requires X-ray and many suggest bloodwork to determine if it is actually bacteria. Most chest infections are viral! She based the diagnosis on the fact that my sputum was yellow - a theory debunked in multiple studies! I felt very uncomfortable with the diagnosis so I went elsewhere for a second opinion. The second doctor did a much more thorough exam. I did not tell second doctor of history of asthma - she asked! Then checked my oxygen levels (not something done at Whitby north even though I was wheezing quite a bit). My O2 was low and it is determined that while I do indeed have a chest infection it is linked it a cold and asthma. 4 hours and 2 puffers later, I feel significantly better. Antibiotics would not have helped my oxygen. When your oxygen is low you can't fight illness!!!!! I requested bloodwork just in case, so if on the off chance this turns out to be bacterial I will change my review.
