Hakim Optical began more than 40 years ago with Mr. Hakim grinding lenses for the Canadian wholesale market. His craft was learned, as a youth, in his native Iran and honed, in subsequent years, grinding lenses in Germany and then camera lenses in Switzerland.Attracted by the excitement of retail opportunities, Mr. Hakim began to pass the great deals he gave to wholesalers on to the public.Today Hakim Optical serves the public with 157 outlets (including 137 one hour factory outlets) in Ontario, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Manitoba.
Advances in medical science have identified umbilical cord blood as a viable and useful source of blood forming stem cells. Stem cells are the fundamental building blocks of our blood and immune systems and are normally confined to the bone marrow. Throughout life, stem cells multiply and mature into red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. In certain disease conditions or as a side effect of chemotherapy or radiotherapy, the bone marrow may stop functioning. At such times, a stem cell transplant becomes necessary to regenerate the bone marrow.
