Specialty Clinics

INR Clinic

The INR Clinic is run by pharmacists and nurses within the Guelph Family Health Team. By taking a drop of blood from a patient’s finger and applying it to our “Coagucheck” machine we are able to get your blood level very quickly. There is no longer a need to go to the lab to have blood taken from your arm. Before you leave the clinic you will have your result, you will know your dose of warfarin to continue with, and you will know when to return to the clinic for your next visit. Please speak with your Guelph Family Health Team Practitioner for more details.
