Today was my first foray into the blood donation realm. Ok, not totally true, I have tried to donate twice at the New Westminster Clinic but have been unsuccessful due to illness or medication, so I was very happy to get the go ahead today.
The blood…More »
I am a blood donor and a proud of it. It took me three tries to be given the go ahead to be able to donate blood but I persevered and here I am.
Anyway, I usually donate at the Dunsmuir location as it is close to my work and is a static facility,…More »

After 3 trips to the ER at RCH I was finally diagnosed with an issue that can be easily solved through minor surgery. In comes Dr. Blair. I saw him 4 times and he was fantastic each time. The first time was a consult and he explained the situation…More »

I hated dentists and hygenists until I came here. Before he left, I had Dr. Murphy, who is a lot of laughs and now i have Dr. Bass who is just as good. I actually enjoy going there. In regard to hygenists, Heather is fantabulous! I love…More »
Woot, woot! I have found something that makes me want to learn what that great white beast in my kitchen is. You know, the one with the brown circular things, I think they call it a stove! Going through some rough times, I gained a few pound and…More »
So a previous review ranted a bit about the cost to see the optometrist. Lets just say I am eating my words, well just a little. They are still expensive ($90 for an eye exam) but they not include the dilation of your eyes in that cost if you need…More »
I can't say anything wrong about this optometrist other than it's always bloody expensive to see any… Read more »
This place is fantastic. I recently won a brand new Rocky Mountain mountain bike however it had an 18 inch frame and I am a very short 5'1 who requires roughly a 13 inch frame. I contacted Rocky Mountain but they weren't interested in doing an…More »
I am a crazy fan of London Drugs. I go in for one item and come out with 20 and I know I am not the only one that does that LOL. It's almost like IKEA to me. Go in and spend hours wandering up and down the aisles, just making sure there isn't…More »

I have been coming here for a few years and all I can say is that the staff and counsellors are fantastic. They have helped me in so many ways!
Just recently moved locations and it is now a bigger gym and I like that there is more equipment but even with more equipment it almost seems to big and airy.

If you are into learning more about Naturopathic medicine and healing via natural remedies, this is the place. It is a student clinic which means you are attended to by the students in their 3rd and 4th (final) years of education but they also have…More »
I LOVE beauty products and find that there are a couple of things I can find here that I can't at LDs (London Drugs) but very few. I find them a little over priced but the location in the mall is great. Last time I was there I picked up ear…More »
A few weeks ago I went down to the Outlets for a shop and stumbled upon this gem! We were looking for a cruiser bike and Spencer helps us find the one we wanted. With the exchange rate it's still a steal for the bike we decided on.
We have since…More »
As most of you know, if you have read my reviews, that I have a couple of dogs. One of which is terrified of bikes and I have two :)! I really wanted to be able to take my dog Puck out on bike rides so I was on a mission to find a basket that I could…More »
This pharmacy gets 5 stars because they always have my prescriptions done in less than 5 minutes. I had four to fill yesterday and I was out in a flash. No wonder Pharmasave hasn't bit into the prescription market in the area.
Not only are they…More »
Who ever likes hospitals? Not me, that's for sure lol! I have never had to use their emergency services but I have had experience with the staff in some of the pavilions and I can say that they are amazing.

I love London Drugs and the experience at this location was no different. I was in the area and needed to pick up a few things, so in I walked. What I really like about the whole London Drugs experience is that almost all of them are laid out in…More »
This past weekend my fiance and I were looking for an inexpensive buffet for our dining room until we could save for one we really wanted and the London Drugs by our house had one we had liked. Unfortunately it was no longer in stock so off we went…More »
I have been coming to Care Point for a number of years and have had mixed experiences. Overall it's closer to a 3 1/2 - 4 star place. It is primarily a walk-in clinic.
I always see Dr. Wozny after some less than desirable experiences with another…More »
A number of years ago I tried this place and they were horrible. I vowed never to go back but a friend of mine was moving away and wanted to get pedicures together and this was where she wanted to go, so sucked it up and decided to try these guys…More »

I have been seeing Dr. Zuberbier for a couple of years now but she just recently moved here from North Vancouver.
I couldn't ask for a better Dr. She's been very helpful for me and is a somewhere I feel I can go to let out some fears etc.
I highly…More »
A couple of weeks ago had to come here for some tests. As far as hospitals go it's not too bad. The emergency was quick and painless for me and usually is whenever I have had to come here.
OMG!!!! I am in LOVE! I received some gift cards for my birthday and bridal shower (they were a couple of weeks apart) for the spa and I was super excited to go as I have never been to a spa before.
I went in for the exclusive manicure so that my…More »

My review of this business will be very limited as I only used them to get my nose pads replaced on my glasses.
For the service I needed and was offered this is definitely a 5 star place. A month or so ago one of my nose pads decided it had enough…More »
Ok, who can honestly say they don't LOVE LD's? Me, I can rarely go into one and not meander. This is another one that makes me need to look down EVERY aisle.
This is a typical London Drugs. The down side is that it's a bit hard to navigate.…More »

Pet friendly businesses (34)Hello yelper friends! If you are anything like me your dog (s) go everywhere with you and you hate leaving them in the car, so here is a list of pet friendly businesses. Just don't let them pee everywhere because it could ruin it for the rest of us! I heart my pets! |
Mary Kay (3)Since I am an Independent Beauty Consultant with Mary Kay, I figured I would share with you the pro and cons of hosting some events outside the home :)! Did that make sense lol? Basically these are places/businesses I come into contact while trying to build my business! |
Retail Therapy (69)When I am down and depressed I take myself shopping and I feel happy! |
4* (just a little something missing) (134)These are all great places but there was always something missing. Didn't make them horrible but didn't get them the coveted 5*!!! |
On the cheap! (58)Cheap is all in relation to the item and thus this list has many different price ranges BUT they are all cheaper than their competitors. I have also put in a few out of country items too :)! |
I love me some clothes... (22)I don't think a clothing list needs a description lol. |
Food, food & more food! (43)I love food! Here are some of my fav places to get my food on! |
The 5 Spot (85)5 stars only club! |
