We now offer FibroScan testing at our clinic!!!!!

What is a FibroScan?
A FibroScan is a quick, non-invasive test that uses a specialized probe placed on the skin over the right side of the abdomen. It measures two things about the liver:

Liver stiffness (which can reflect scarring or fibrosis)
The amount of fat in the liver
The test usually takes about 5–10 minutes. No needles or sedation are involved, and most people can return to their normal activities right away. Results are typically available at the time of the appointment.

Who might be considered for a FibroScan?
A provider may recommend this test for people with (or at risk of) certain liver-related conditions, including:

Fatty liver disease (NAFLD / MASLD / NASH)
Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C
Alcohol-related liver disease
Type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome
Persistently elevated liver enzymes
Autoimmune liver conditions
Known or suspected cirrhosis
Other chronic liver conditions
It can also be used to help monitor liver health over time.

This is general information only. Whether a FibroScan is appropriate depends on your individual medical situation.

**Please speak with your provider if you have questions about your liver health**

URGENT

We wanted to let you know that we’re expecting some delays in services this week, including the need to reschedule certain appointments. This is due to the ongoing provincial transition to the new electronic medical record system, CorCare.
We’re truly sorry for the stress and inconvenience this is causing. Our team is working hard to support you through this change and get everyone the timely testing and care you need and deserve.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Please be advised that due to CorCare training sessions, there may be temporary clinic closures or reduced hours in the coming days/weeks. As a result, some appointments may need to be rescheduled.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Our team will be reaching out directly to affected patients to reschedule at the earliest possible time.

Nurse Practitioner Opportunity.
clinician space Available in Our Internal Medicine practice. Clarenville, Newfoundland and Labrador
We are offering an excellent opportunity for a licensed Nurse Practitioner (NP) to join our established internal medicine practice in Clarenville.
This arrangement allows you to operate as a separate, autonomous provider while using clinical space within our facility. You will have full access to our shared resources and enjoy a highly supportive, collaborative environment.
This opportunity aligns perfectly with the Newfoundland and Labrador government’s new public funding model for Nurse Practitioners, effective April 1, 2026.

Our practice provides an outstanding clinical setting featuring:
• Full access to a modern non-invasive cardiology suite (electrocardiography, stress testing, Holter monitoring, and additional cardiac diagnostics)
• On-site rapid diagnostics
• Shared administrative support staff
• Electronic medical records system fully supported (CorCare)

As an independent clinician, you will maintain your own practice, schedule, and patient roster, while benefiting from the convenience and efficiency of operating within our established internal medicine clinic. This setup is ideal for an NP who wants clinical autonomy combined with immediate access to specialized diagnostics and a ready referral base.

We welcome NPs who are looking to establish or expand their independent practice in the Clarenville and surrounding Eastern Newfoundland area.
