Back issue. The Denman Firestarter did not exist on 2021-01-21. This edition was compiled on 2026-10-01 from the public record as it stood on 2021-01-21, and contains nothing dated after that day — no outcomes, no hindsight. It is a reconstruction of what was on the record at the time, not a document from the time. This edition.

The Denman Health Care Society says the clinic has 16 Wednesday-morning appointments available for blood tests and ECGs, and can book up to 13 in advance. Some drop-in appointments remain available for sign-up on the day.[1]
The society says demand is high and patients sometimes have to travel off-island when sessions are full. It says doctors have made regular representations to LifeLabs to increase service, so far without success.[1]
