IV Iron Therapy

We are pleased to offer IV iron infusions to the Victoria community. Intravenous iron is a great option for correcting iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia if you don’t tolerate oral supplements, if oral supplements are not working quickly enough, or if anemia is severe, among other reasons. It usually only takes 1-2 treatments for iron stores to normalize, which is much quicker compared to oral supplements. 

Dr. Chelsea Cole, ND is our licensed naturopathic physician certified to administer IV iron infusions.

If you are not a patient at Juniper Family Health and are interested in IV iron infusions please follow these steps:
