Get the most out of your doctor’s appointment

Doctors, like us, are busy and so it can take a while to get an appointment to see your family physician.

Neil's innoviCares Story

"Just over a year ago, a relative told me about Crestor, and I did some research about it on the Internet. That’s when I discovered the website for the innoviCares card, and I applied for it online. At the time, my family doctor and my pharmacist hadn’t heard about the card."

Margaret’s Story

“For many years, I’ve suffered from severe depression, panic attacks, separation anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder. The depression got worse as I got older, and I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. In 2012, I had a breakdown—I was on medication, but not the right kind or enough of a dose. I ended up in the hospital, where I saw a psychiatrist. After I was discharged, I continued to see her on an outpatient basis for two years.
