BOOKING ONLINE / BY PHONE

STUDENT CLINIC — You’re welcome to request me by name (Breanna Johnston) when booking through the front desk at Pacific Rim College. To do so, please reference the time slot and supervisor that I’m working under as a student (listed below). Occasionally, multiple patients request the same slot—when that happens, the final assignment is at the discretion of the supervisor. If that’s the case, you’ll still be in excellent hands with one of my kind and capable classmates.

Appointments tend to book up quickly at the start of the semester, but openings do come up from time to time.

Please be kind to our administrative staff when booking— they work hard and coordinate many moving parts. Unfortunately, some time slots may be completely full.
