👍👍 This is a top notch choice. The service is excellent and they clearly care about their patients. Wait times tend to be shorter than you would expect, given the extraordinary scheduling challenges for a smaller clinic. Yet, during your consultation, you never feel rushed.

    This is a top notch choice. The service is excellent and they clearly care about their patients. Wait times tend to be shorter than you would expect, given the extraordinary scheduling challenges for a smaller clinic. Yet, during your consultation, you never feel rushed. Great attention is paid to you when you call, visit and when they report back results by phone. They have also been excellent in providing referrals to some of the top specialists in Ottawa. Highly recommended.

    I've known Dr. Weiner for over 15 years and I've had nothing but positive experiences. He's incredibly friendly, offers great advice, and the prices are affordable. He's travelled all over the world and really knows his stuff. I highly recommend him! Carla Sullivan

    Dr. Lorne Weiner at Downtown Travel Medicine has decades of experience. I know because he has been giving me excellent travel medicine advice for almost 30 years. 61 countries and no illness yet... An excellent communicator and always a delight to see again. Warm, concerned, dedicated.

    Travelling smart and staying safe is the key to a good trip. It pays to consult an experienced travel medicine doctor like Dr. Weiner who is the first choice of government and NGO professionals. Prompt, knowledgeable and always up-to-date -- at a great price. Lorne has worked in travel medicine for decades and has travelled extensively himself - 70 countries and counting. Dr Weiner has been my doctor since 1991 and he is caring, conscientious and has a great sense of humour. Highly recommended!

    I've seen Lorne many times over the years. He is an experienced travel doctor who's been all over the world and always seems genuine. He takes the time to listen and gives great advice, he knows his stuff. Also this clinic has a very convenient downtown location, the transitway bus stop is literally outside the building.

    I am a longtime patient of Dr. Weiner's and I can tell you that he's a kind and caring doctor. I trust his judgement. He is very well traveled and is very knowledgeable. The wait times are short, and the staff is very friendly. A real gem in downtown Ottawa!

    Been a patient for over 23yrs from a referral, he also took my husband as a patient when we got married 16yrs ago. Sometimes the wait in the waiting room or to get an appt is long but Dr. Weiner is a great doctor, quite warm and personable and in this day and age with so many people out there not having a family Dr. I am glad I have such a knowledgeable one. Hope he practices for a lot more years

    I recently saw Dr. Weiner at the Travel Clinic. I was very satisfied with his service. He knows what he's talking about and his prices are competitive. I'll be using his service again for my inoculation and travel needs.

    I'm very pleased with the downtown travel medicine clinic. My visit before my holiday to Asia went well, Dr. Weiner is very friendly, patient and knowledgeable. I was referred via a friend and will return for my next overseas trip.

    I have been a client-patient of Dr. Weiner for 30 years and fully recommend him. He is Informal, warm, efficient, an artist at his trade, so an office visit is always a pleasure. I am a consultant in development assistance, so lots of short-term travel to developing countries, and sometimes long-term jobs. Africa mainly, some to Middle East, Asia, Latin America, in all 30 + countries. When you have 6 weeks to do a job in say, Congo or South Sudan, you need to be well-prepared, you need reliable medical advice, supplies, up-to-date shots. For this I thank Dr. Weiner.

    Dr. Weiner himself is great; very friendly, funny, and a great listener. As a patient I felt very comfortable. However, his receptionist is quite possibly the rudest person I have ever dealt with on the phone; she was extremely condescending and aggressive in response to a simple question of having a prescription renewed. Due to this issue, I DO NOT recommend that anyone goes to this clinic. Dr. Weiner should take more time in hiring more considerate and empathetic receptionists.

    1 Went for vaccines and advice before traveling to Cuba. Dr was very friendly and knowledgable. We chatted about things to keep in mind during travel. Absolutely loved the entire service. Will definitely come back for future travels.

    Great and funny doctor! Aside from giving good health advice and vaccines, he told us some other places we should check out in our travel because he was there as well. Super helpful as I haven't actually planned out what I will be doing on my vacation, just where I am going.But, at least I will be safe :) Prices are OK, and good thing that some things last for many years, so I guess I am saving money this way.. I called multiple places and they are all around the same. But they had everything there, so I didn't need to run back and forth from the pharmacy to the doctor's office to get my needles.

    very friendly but overcharges for vaccines. $250 for one that's covered at a max of $111 though sun-life & $70 for one that's covered at max $25. Prices way above reasonable and customary

    Went to the clinic with my wife, doctor was great, very knowledgeable and thorough. Went over each medicine and clearly explained everything. Very much appreciated the personal care.

    Excellent Service! The doctor was so nice, knowledgeable, very easy to talk to and well travelled. He gave me some great travel destination advice that I will be adding to my trip as well! Thanks!

    Just got back from going during my lunch break. The staff was super nice and knowledgeable, the location is very convenient. I was in and out in less than half an hour. One thing to note: I guess due to the wording on the booking website, I assumed when I booked a "consultation", I'd be talking to someone and determining which vaccines I needed, which I'd get at a later date. I was pleasantly surprised to find out they had everything on-hand and now it's already done, I've got my shots!
