We hope everyone’s school year is off to a fantastic start! Good luck to all the students and families as week one is almost done!

Happy Canada Day to everyone! We hope you all had a fantastic day. I am really looking forward to getting back to work next week and seeing everyone again! All the best and stay safe!

Thank you for everyone’s patience over the past couple months! This has been a very challenging time for all of us with various responsibilities changing at home and at work, from different working conditions or home schooling to even unemployment. I have been planning to fully reopen, and with the guidance of the Ministy of Health and the College of Chiropractors of Ontario, I feel confident with treating patients starting on Monday July 6, 2020. I have acquired all the per...sonal protective equipment and protocols needed to ensure your visit follows strict health guidelines. With this being said, I am very excited to start helping my patients once again! I will be starting to call and message everyone over the next week and look forward to getting in touch with you! If you would like to book an appointment, you can either message me here or call 519-688-1188. Sincerely, Dr Mark Dickson

Happy Mother’s Day from all of us to you! We hope you had a fantastic family weekend!

Happy 4th Birthday, Thomas! We had a fun-filled Toy Story birthday weekend as a family of four. The weather was beautiful yesterday and we hope everyone was able to enjoy it while staying safe. All the best from our family to yours!

I hope everyone is doing the best they can during these difficult times. I am looking forward to getting back to work when the time is right and safer for all of us. In the meantime, I have been teaching the kids from home, beating original Nintendo Games, birdwatching from the window, keeping active with running laps around our property (including jumping the fence), and lots of family time. My wife has also been very busy lately working as a pharmacist at 8 different hospital sites around Ontario. We are all very proud of her and all the other healthcare workers and essential workers keeping our community going! We would love to hear what others have been up to as well. Stay home, stay safe, we will get through this!

Weekend highlights: embracing the original physical distancing friendly pastime of birdwatching. At Bird Studies Canada in Port Rowan we saw all of three other birders who were just as respectful of physical distancing as our little family. Favourite bird species we saw included common goldeneye, greater scaup, juvenile and adult bald eagles, American kestrel (our favourite little falcon!), about a thousand tundra swans (Aylmer Conservation Area), an American wigeon, and a f...ew red tailed hawks. Also: did you know that it’s a common practice among birders not to disclose the location of a rare bird sighting, even to a fellow enthusiast? The reason for this is not to disturb nature. We can learn something about physical distancing through birdwatching. In these scary times, stay home and venture outdoors only if you (and your children) are able to distance yourselves as much as possible (minimum 2 metres) from other humans and stay off playground equipment. We’re all in this together. See more

Social distancing at Camp Dickson: today we played cardboard box robots, Pokémon cards, went for a scooter ride while I tried to pull off some skateboard tricks (highlight: ollied a curb), followed by walkie talkie fun with the neighbours (we highly recommend!) and a visit to the home dental clinic.

Unfortunately, I have decided to close Dickson Chiropractic today due to the State of Emergency reported by the government. This has been a very difficult decision to not work today, but it is for the best of my patients and community of Tillsonburg. I expect to be closed until March 31st, so all appointments during this time will be cancelled. I will be thinking about all my patients and wishing them all a safe time over the challenging next two weeks. Once we hear more information from the government, I will be scheduling patients as soon as it is safe for everyone. Sincerely, Dr Mark Dickson

Have a great weekend everyone and stay warm with all this cold weather we have been having lately.

Happy Family Day everyone! If you are looking for something to do today, I highly recommend checking out the community centre. Lots of fun things to do with the whole family! See you there!

We wish everyone a Happy Valentine’s Day and fantastic Family Day weekend! Enjoy your time with family and friends!

Once again, thanks for the support for Movember and have a great weekend everyone!

We wish everyone a wonderful New Year’s tonight! If you are looking for something to do before the festivities, Canadian Family Feud is playing at 8pm tonight o...n CBC. We attended this filming in Toronto and look forward to seeing the finishing touches (We sat front row, just left of centre). Also, CBC Gem is a great App and you can watch any of the shows this way on demand. If anyone else would like to attend a filming in Toronto, let me know and I can connect you with the right people! Thanks again Matt Dempsey for hooking us up. We plan to attend another filming before it is done in February... so much fun! Have a great night everyone and have fun tonight! See more

Thank you Town of Tillsonburg for putting on an amazing Remembrance Day Ceremony. The weather was cold and snowy yet the turnout was record-breaking with everyo...ne paying respect to those who have fought for our freedom. I had the honour of representing the Tillsonburg Masonic Lodges by placing a wreath at the cenotaph. This was a very special event for all who attended and watched. Thank you Chris Abbott for taking these photos and many others that capture the gratitude that we share for our veterans and all those active in the services. Lest we forget. See more

We hope everyone is having a fantastic weekend. Here is the progress of our fun Movember campaign of fundraising for Men’s Health and prostate/testicular cancer research by growing a unique moustache. Thanks so much for your support!
