Mask use is so important to contain the spread of Covid-19, especially with the spike in numbers recently. Please follow the Government of Saskatchewan guidelines and wear your mask properly. You're protecting others and helping businesses stay open by reducing transmission.

*Public Health Notice - Masks Required* Please be advised that as of tomorrow (November 6) masks will be required in all indoor spaces in Saskatoon. This includes my office. If you are unable to wear a mask during your appointment virtual and phone consults are available.

Well, this has been a stressful and frustrating Fall - allergies, smoke, back to school bugs, and long line-ups at testing facilities. Unfortunately with the current climate, you our your child's mild sniffles or sore throat can cause much more stress, missed school and missed work than we have historically dealt with. Thanks 2020! Naturopathic doctors are uniquely trained to find the underlying cause of disease and advise patients on the correct use of natural medicines. ... When it comes to a healthy immune system, we can help you design a strategy that works. Some of the most common methods I use are: -Identifying food sensitivities and removing mucous promoting foods -Boosting key nutrients that support a healthy immune response -Optimizing digestion and beneficial bacteria in the gut -Using herbal medicines to prevent and treat cold and flu bugs -Improving lifestyle factors such as sleep essential for your body's repair and recovery These are tough times but we're tough Saskatchewanians. We have been fortunate to see limited cases in our province and that is thanks to the hard work, diligence, and sacrifice of everyone in the community. Make sure to call 811 if you experience potential COVID symptoms and follow their direction for testing and quarantine. Keep up the great work and stay safe!

2020 has been a crazy year so far halfway through and so many ups and downs. There's been many changes so I wanted to share some updates. In February I moved my practice to 8th St Chiropractic and Wellness Center at 1269 8th St E. It was difficult to say good-bye to everyone at True Potential but I'm excited to start on a new adventure and get to know my colleagues at the new clinic. If you need information on services, fees, or booking please visit drwhelan.ca. My pa...rtner and I moved to an acreage and got engaged! Buying a home during uncertain times was not easy and home ownership has been challenging at times but we really love being closer to nature and are settling in nicely. No plans for a wedding any time soon if you're wondering :) In mid-March the coronavirus became a full-blown pandemic in Canada and I had to close my office for nearly 2 months. The coronavirus continues to cause stress for everyone but *I am seeing patients in person again with precautions*. Make sure you read your email confirmations and do not visit the office if you have a fever, cold or flu symptoms, have been in contact with a suspected or confirmed Covid-19 case, or have recently travelled. Contact surfaces in the clinic are disinfected before and after each appointment and I happily wear a procedure mask during your visit to reduce risk of transmission. Phone consults are always available if you would like to minimize travel and possible exposure - book online as usual with a note requesting a phone or video consult. Be sure to leave your preferred number. Online booking is now available at drwhelan.ca just click online booking to see available appointments. If you are in need of an urgent appointment or cannot find a time that works, you can call or text me at 639-916-2219. I have added some flex hours to my schedule to allow for urgent appointments and will be working Saturdays by request/waiting list during the summer. Evening appointments are currently available on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Feel free to contact me on messenger, by phone/text or email [email protected]. Hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable summer!

It’s been about a month since officially closing the office and there is no immediate end in sight for social distancing and protective measures. It’s been difficult in many ways but allowed for some rest and solitude. I hope everyone is coping, and want to thank front line workers including nurses, doctors, grocery workers, pharmacy workers, veterinary staff, and delivery drivers. I also want to extend my thoughts to all the small businesses that have been struggling with the financial fallout that this pandemic has caused. It’s not business as usual, but if you need a quick Spring check-in for allergy support or to detox after a not so healthy self-quarantine indulgence, please contact me for a phone or video consult at https://drwhelan.ca/. Stay safe, stay healthy and do what you can to find some joy in these difficult times.
