If oral iron hasn't worked or your ferritin remains low, iron infusion may be the right next step. Start with a free 15-minute call to find out whether it's appropriate for you.
Iron infusion delivers iron directly into the bloodstream through an IV, bypassing the digestive system. It is sometimes considered when oral supplements have not been effective, when they cause side effects, or when ferritin levels need to be restored more efficiently than supplementation allows.
Whether iron infusion is appropriate depends on your bloodwork, symptoms, and overall clinical picture. Our team reviews your labs and health history together with you so you understand what is going on and what makes sense as a next step.
Start with a free call. From there, costs depend on what your assessment shows is appropriate for you.

A full review of your bloodwork, health history, and symptoms to determine whether iron infusion is appropriate and what protocol may make sense.
If iron infusion is the right next step, treatment is provided in our private clinic. Number of sessions and formulation depends on your individual protocol.
Iron infusion is provided when clinically appropriate based on your bloodwork and assessment. It is not suitable in every case, and other approaches may be recommended depending on what your assessment shows.

Our practitioners work together to look at underlying contributors — absorption, GI factors, menstrual loss, diet — not just the iron number in isolation.
Your infusion is done in a quiet, private setting — not a shared room. Comfortable seating, calm space, time without being rushed.
We bill most major extended health insurers directly, so you may not pay out of pocket. We help you check coverage on your call.
Will I know right away if I need an iron infusion?
Not always. The right next step depends on your symptoms, your bloodwork, and your overall clinical picture. For some people iron infusion makes sense. For others, oral iron strategies or further investigation may be more appropriate. The assessment is what determines this.
Do I need a referral or bloodwork first?
No referral is required. Recent bloodwork is important — if you don't have it, we can help guide you on what to obtain before your assessment.
How long does an infusion appointment take?
Appointment length depends on the formulation used. Most iron infusion appointments run between 30 and 90 minutes including monitoring.
How many infusions might I need?
This varies. Some people require a single infusion; others a short series. Your practitioner will discuss what is recommended based on your ferritin, your history, and your symptoms.
Is this covered by OHIP or insurance?
OHIP does not cover private clinic visits. Many people have extended health benefits that cover part or all of the cost. We bill most major insurers directly. We can help you check coverage on your consultation call.
What if I have already tried iron supplements?
That is one of the most common reasons people reach out. We look at why supplementation may not have worked — absorption issues, GI tolerance, ongoing losses — and what options may make sense from there.
