LMC Endocrinology Centres are multi-disciplinary regional Centres
of Excellence, committed to providing state-of-the-art Complete Care in Diabetes,
Endocrinology & Metabolism. Each centre is designed to provide community-based access to
service excellence through our focus on the key needs of our patients. Our commitment to
enabling wellness, embracing learning and expanding the therapeutic horizon is integrated
into all aspects of our centres.
Enabling Wellness
Each of our centres of excellence provides direct care by experienced specialists in
Endocrinology & Metabolism. Our centres cater to our communities through unique workshop
design for the specific community, culturally sensitive educational materials and other
tools to enable wellness in our patients.
Each Clinic provides Registered Dietitians, Certified Diabetes Educators, and Certified
Personal Trainers to provide education and supportive counselling to our patients. To
enhance the spectrum of care we also provide on-site Bone Densitometry (3 sites),
electrocardiography and phlebotomy services.
Embracing learning
Our team of professionals is dedicated to providing our communities with exclusive
workshops, culturally sensitive educational materials and other personalized tools
to further support and empower our patients. Our specialists, key opinion leaders in
their field provide regular continuing education and host symposia and workshops for
the physician community. Our regular publication "Clinical Practice Update in
Endocrinology and Diabetes" is circulated to over 5000 of Canada's key physicians.
To further enhance our credo of embracing learning, we provide continuous learning
opportunities to both our in house educators as well as those in the communities
surrounding us.
Expanding the therapeutic horizon
Our Endocrinology specialists have participated in over 140 Clinical Research Studies,
at the forefront of medical research. Embracing our credo of expanding the therapeutic
horizon, we continue to help develop future therapies and provide early access to these
promising tools to our patients.
Our innovative approach to providing centres of excellence in our communities has been
acknowledged by both our patients and the surrounding communities. We were the first
community-based Diabetes Education Centre provided with Ministry of Health support (2005)
and were subsequently named the 2006 winner of the Oakville Business Awards of Excellence
for Entrepreneurship. Still, the greatest testament to our centres of excellence is the
increase in our patient base with over 1200 new patients entering our clinics each year.
Our commitment to providing optimal Endocrine health care to each patient extends through
all members of our multi-disciplinary team. Working together, with the latest in education,
tools and therapies, we provide with the most complete care in disorders of Diabetes,
Endocrinology & Metabolism.
