I have been to countless other health professionals (chiropractors, physiotherapists and massage therapists) in the past to deal with pain and tingling in my wrists and arms accompanied by tension in my shoulders, neck and back. I am finally feeling that I understand why my body feels pain and how different parts and systems in my body are interacting. I really appreciate the holistic, hands on approach taken by these practitioners. I am also so relieved to be treated one-on-one without any use of machines during my sessions. I highly recommend this centre and its practitioners to people looking for treatment and relief from chronic pain such as mine.

I feel like I've been on a never-ending journey to health. It all started when I was 15 when I…read moredeveloped some pretty intense stomach problems. I went to numerous doctors and was told it was everything from "becoming a woman" to "the stomach flu". I was sick for three years until they found out I had gallstones and stomach ulcers. Good enough, at 17 I had surgery and thought I was fixed. Flash forward a few years and my issues still hadn't sorted themselves out. In and out of doctors offices, I've learned to manage it with diet.... and just accepting that this is how I am. My weight fluctuates within 10 - 15 lbs every six months, which, once again, I thought was normal.... I guess it's not. Bringing us to today. A few of my coworkers recently visited Dr. Sarah Tanner at Natural Choices Health and had nothing but positive ravings. One of my coworkers even took her entire family to get diagnosed with multiple food intolerances and vitamin deficiencies. After listening to their stories, I thought I'd give it a try - and boy am I ever glad I did. Alongside visiting a traditional family doctor, I found out that I have food intolerances that was never thought of by any of my traditional doctors, as well as two vitamin deficiencies (one of which I was told about years ago, but when I received my blood work from my new Family Doctor just weeks ago, I was told I was fine). In just a short time of cutting out what the Naturopath believed would be my intolerances, I've already seen an improvement and I'm looking forward to getting my health as a whole, on track! I've already recommended this place to other friends who are open to exploring their health in less traditional ways and I knew I had to also tell the Yelp world. *Note: Visiting a Naturopath in conjunction with traditional doctors should be your route. I would never not go to a traditional doctor, but this is just the icing on the cake :)

Therapeutic Approach is a one-stop-shop for all you complimentary health services. They offer…read moreoriental medicine, allergy testing and acupuncture, physiotherapy, massage therapy, yoga, yoga therapy, naturopathic medicine, osteopathy, nutrition consultation and psychotherapy. It was founded by Maxine and Mike Munro who also started the yoga studio and teacher-training program that reside in the same building. I've been a client for several years, popping in periodically for massage therapy treatments. Located on Quinpool Road just across from the Superstore entrance, parking can be a bit of a challenge. But once you're inside the stress starts to melt away. The reception staff is warm and efficient, everyone is friendly and the atmosphere is pleasantly zen without being so serious that you feel like you're not allowed to giggle. I've heard very good things about the nutritional consultations and naturopathic medicine, and I can confirm first-hand that the RMTs on staff are kinda sorta miracle workers. This is isn't the same massage you would get a spa or salon, but I think it's better - a concerted effort is being made to create an environment of calm ... and you never leave the treatment room and get blasted by music and smell of nail polish. Not that I don't like nail polish, but it's not exactly a scent conducive to stress relief (not for me anyway). If you're looking for a professional place that offers multiple "alternative" medical options, give this little gem a try.

Woodlawn has been my family doctor's office ever since I can remember. I've been going there even…read moreback when it was in that terrible brown building with the narrowest staircases of all time. It was dim dingy and very, very much in need of an update. This new building is lovely. Bright and airy, with art on the walls, it's a much more pleasant place to wait in. The chairs are super comfy, which is great, as you'll be waiting for a while in them. While I love my family doctor to pieces, and I've never had any other doctor disappoint me here, I can't give this spot a full five stars. That is because my doctor has a receptionist that hates me. I don't know why. I can't ever remember her smiling at anyone, so maybe she hates everyone. All I know is she's rude and blunt and I dread calling for an appointment because of how little she cares. There's another receptionist who works the same desk, and she's an absolute doll. She'll do her best to get everyone an appointment as soon as possible, while the other woman will make you wait six weeks, no matter how much you stress that your call is an emergency. So really, this review is either a one star for stressing me out so much, or a five star for making my life a breeze. Let's compromise, and go with a middle three. The extra star is for the amazing doctors who deserve all the praise in the world.

This is a beautiful new clinic.

The walk-in clinic is separate from the rest of the clinic. It has a nice sized waiting room with comfy chairs. They do blood collection services very early, which is convenient for me when I need to get blood work done before heading to work. The main clinic is very nice, uses bright funky colours to organize the stations, and is just plain huge. Every time I'm amazed at the size of the waiting room stations for each set of doctors. It's fresh and modern, with tans and greens and splashes of colour here and there. Flat screens are scattered around, feeding you medical tips and info. The exam rooms are big and inviting, too, with hardwood floors and the same warm colour palette. That being said, I totally loathe their phone system. It's one of those automated systems where you have to speak your doctor's name and the computer will attempt to recognize your voice and connect you to the correct office. I say attempt, because I've yet to be able to connect this way. I speak as clearly as possible, and get frustrated after the automated voice on the other end apologizes for not understanding what I'm saying and asking me to repeat myself for the third time before it gives up and just connects me to the main switchboard. The clinic is great. Now if only my doctor could be rated the same...

When I moved to Halifax, I had a difficult time finding a doctor that respected me and listened to…read moremy concerns. Fortunately, once I had decided to bail on the first doctor, I found Dr. Bruce Silburt and his staff at the Mayflower Medical Centre. Mayflower Medical is a shared practice. Dr. Silburt practices there, as do a number of his colleagues. The central office staff support all associated doctors. I've seen two other doctors besides Dr. Silburt. Everyone has been respectful and kind, and worked with me to find a solution to whatever was bothering either myself or one of my kiddos. Of particular note is the weekend clinic hours they offer; sometimes that's the only way you can get seen in a hurry. Having said that, I do have to let you know that appointments go quickly; for a routine visit, expect to wait 2 - 3 weeks. It's difficult to be seen for an urgent complaint, which is why I have back-up doctors at the Family Focus Medical Clinic. Between the two practices, I can usually get everything taken care of without too much bother. If you have an appointment booked, it's a good plan to bring a book -- it's very common to have a significant wait before being called back. But, all things considered, I'm very pleased with both Dr. Silburt and the Mayflower Medical Centre.
