Visited the Ottawa Gastronomical Institute (OGI) for a Colonoscopy which is located at the far end of Elmvale Shopping Centre and I was thoroughly impressed by the speed, professionalism and quality of service I received there.
My appointment was at 12:30, I arrived at 12:00, was called in at 12:30 promptly, led into a room full of at least curtained off beds, each with its own number on the wall.
The nurse gave me instructions, asked me a few questions and set the IV line and sent in the anesthesiologist who explained the process she was going to perform. Within 10 minutes, I was wheeled out of my curtain on my gurney into the procedure room, met by the doctor, he explained the procedure, and once I got the juice through the IV, I was off to the races. I awoke at about 13:45 and caught the last 15 minutes of video. No pain, no memory, felt like a thousand bucks!
Was wheeled back to my curtain and got dressed, left to the waiting room for my ride and off I went. Results came back to my doctor within 1 week although they said it could take up to 3.
The selfie is of me after the procedure. I was feeling GREAT! The buzz lasted quite a while.

Not the easiest place to get in & out of. Bussing is a good option as transit way is right beside mall.

Great collection of stores. For a small mall, you can get just about everything you need. The parking lot can be a bit of a crazy at times

It's a great neighborhood mall with all the amenities you need in one spot ...bank, pharmacy, grocery, beer/wine, coffee shop, tailor, hardware store, restaurants for quick bites, and plenty more including ample parking!!
