Iron Infusions

If you’re experiencing fatigue, brain fog, shortness of breath, hair loss, or difficulty with exercise, low iron may be part of the picture. I provides safe, supervised iron infusions in Vancouver for patients who need fast and effective iron restoration. This service is ideal for individuals who cannot tolerate oral iron, need rapid correction, or have chronically low ferritin.

What Iron Infusions Can Help With

Low ferritin / iron deficiency

Heavy menstrual bleeding

Fatigue & burnout

Shortness of breath

Hair loss related to low iron

Postpartum depletion

Vegetarian/vegan low iron

ADHD symptoms worsened by iron deficiency

Why Choose IV Iron?

IV iron bypasses the digestive system and delivers iron directly into the bloodstream—allowing ferritin levels to rise faster and symptoms to improve more quickly.

What to Expect

You will receive an assessment, lab review, and individualized treatment plan before your infusion.
The infusion occurs in a relaxed, comfortable environment with continuous monitoring.

Who's a Good Candidate?

  • Those with low ferritin or iron deficiency anemia
  • People who don’t tolerate oral iron

Iron Infusion FAQ's

Many patients notice improvements within 1–3 weeks

Yes, current ferritin levels are required before treatment. This helps confirm whether you’re truly iron deficient, determine the right dosage, and ensure the treatment is safe and appropriate for you. If you don’t have current labs, I can order them for you during your pre-iron infusion consultation.

IV iron typically begins to increase hemoglobin within 1–2 weeks, with the most noticeable rise occurring around 2–4 weeks after treatment. Many patients start to feel improvements in energy, breathlessness, and fatigue within the first 7–10 days, even before hemoglobin reaches its peak. Full correction of hemoglobin levels usually occurs by 4–8 weeks, depending on:

  • the severity of iron deficiency before treatment
  • the total dose of IV iron received
  • underlying health conditions
  • ongoing blood loss or inflammation
