We recognize and respect the home of many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples as the traditional stewards of the land.

Our clinic recognizes the hardship that is caused by systemic oppression and seeks to build practices and policies that promote equity, diversity and value within the clinic and to those we serve.
