Medical Aesthetics in Old North, London

Old North sits between downtown London and the Western University campus, bounded roughly by Oxford Street to the south, Adelaide Street to the east, the Thames River to the north, and Richmond Street to the west. It is one of the oldest continuously residential parts of the city, with the majority of its homes built in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Victorian and Edwardian architecture dominates the streets, many of which are designated heritage properties. Within Old North sit three distinct sub-neighbourhoods: Bishop Hellmuth, known for its grand homes along Wellington Street north of Oxford; Broughdale, adjacent to the Western campus along the Parkway; and St. George-Grosvenor, running along the south bank of the Thames River.

Gibbons Park anchors the neighbourhood’s northern edge along the Thames, with a pool, spray pad, tennis courts, picnic areas, and riverbank walking trails connecting to the Thames Valley Parkway. Doidge Park on Cheapside Street, directly across from St. Joseph’s Hospital, has served generations of Old North families. Huron Street Woods offers a quieter forested trail retreat within the neighbourhood’s boundaries. Western University, King’s College, and St. Peter’s Seminary together give Old North a significant academic presence and a daily rhythm shaped by the university calendar. Richmond Row, with its restaurants, boutiques, and patios, is a short walk south. Schools include Old North Public School, St. George’s Public School, and St. Michael Catholic, with secondary students attending Central, H.B. Beal, or Catholic Central.

Old North attracts residents who value substance alongside beauty. The homes require investment and care. The neighbourhood rewards people who are present in it. The clients we see from here bring that same thoughtfulness to their decisions about aesthetic care, and we think that is exactly the right way to approach it.
