If you miss an appointment, this takes away from another patient who needs to see a physician/practitioner.  Please provide at least 24 hours of notice for cancellation of appointments.  We will be happy to reschedule it for you!  Although appointments can be booked online, cancellations MUST be requested by phone at 604-914-8888 or by email at clinic@yyoung.com during business hours.

Missed appointments will be charged a no-show fee of $50.  Repeated no-shows without adequate notice of cancellation will unfortunately result in discharge from yYoung Medical Clinic’s services. Please avoid this by letting us know ahead of time if you will miss an appointment so we can improve access for other patients in need.

We currently are not accepting new patients, and we will update our website and Google when we do. We will also update on the www.findadoctorbc.c website. Patients may also use this website to find out which clinic has physicians that are accepting patients.

You can book your follow up appointment ahead of time, but please ensure the requisitions are done at least 1 day prior to your next follow up appointment date. For specialists, we will reach out and book an appointment with you as per the physician’s instruction because sometimes it can take a few days for us to receive updates from your specialists.

For any referral, an appointment should be booked with the practitioner. Once the referral is faxed over to the specialist office, they will let our office/patients’ know if the specialist has accepted/declined or if the patient has put on a waitlist.

We will do our best to organize specialist referrals and hospital investigations in a timely manner, however wait times are often long. Should you not obtain any follow-up on specialist referrals or hospital investigations within two months (or earlier for urgent matters), please inquire at our clinic about the status of your referral.

We welcome patients to come here for their allergy shots. If this is your first time, you will need to bring the serum with you. You may store the allergy serum with us and save the hassle of carrying it every time!

Yes, for any medication refill or renewal, the practitioner may have to talk to you before prescribing it. The clinic does not accept fax from a pharmacy for refill/renewal of medications. We strictly recommend calling the office 2 weeks before your medications run out to book an appointment.

Pharmacies are generally allowed to give an emergency supply of prescriptions so if your prescriptions are completely out, you can go to your regular pharmacy.

Once the consultation on reviewing the results has been done, you can check with the practitioners to send over the records. If yes, the reports will be emailed to you from our InputHealth system. Before reviewal of results with practitioner, you will have to call the office, and the front desk will confirm with the practitioner whether to send or not. Once the request has been approved by the practitioner, the results can be sent over.
