South Shore patients investigating or following up high blood pressure who want accurate automated or 24-hour ambulatory readings.
Blood pressure assessment with BPTru in-clinic automated repeated readings or 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). Used for hypertension screening/follow-up and more reliable readings. ABPM may be recommended even after BPTru. Credit card may be held during device loan; repair/replacement costs may apply for loss, damage, or non-return.
No specific exclusions. The medical consultation, and any lab-analysis or pathology fees, are billed separately where applicable. This service does not replace emergency care.
BPTru takes automated repeated readings in clinic; 24-hour ABPM records your blood pressure over a full day for a more reliable hypertension diagnosis. ABPM may be recommended even after BPTru.
A BPTru can typically be booked directly, while 24-hour ABPM may be done on a physician's request with medical review. Check the options or book a consultation first if unsure.
Wear a loose top, go about your normal day with the cuff on, and keep the arm still during readings. You return the monitor after 24 hours; the test is CA$99.
BPTru takes several automated blood-pressure readings while you rest quietly in clinic, reducing white-coat effect for a more reliable in-office measure. It's CA$49.

Follow-up care for individuals and families—chronic condition monitoring, pediatrics, results review, and prescription renewals when appropriate. In-person visits with telemedicine available for select concerns when clinically appropriate.
