Remicade Infusion Location Choices Canada

[JoeSmith]

Hi there,
New to the group and would appreciate hearing your experiences with the different places to go for Remicade Infusions. My father has been prescribed Remicade and I'm trying to determine the best place for him to go for his appointments. Is there any difference between the recommended one (BioAdvance) vs. others like AIM or BioAdvance I think it's called? Do you have to bring your own prescription to any of them or is it already there when I arrive? We live in the Toronto area, there are a couple of hospitals that also offer infusion but I've heard the private clinics are nicer.

Also my doctor mentioned that some doctors offices offer infusions, would this be safer?

I appreciate any help the group can provide it looks like there is plenty of knowledge and experience in this group.

I went to Mt Sinai where my Doctor was....the clinic there is really nice and the nurse is great. There must always be a doctor on site in case of reaction.
I think it's up to you
