Medical Clinic Walk-In
As a service to our clients we offer a walk-in clinic Monday to Friday from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. If you need to see your doctor or nurse practitioner and they are either not working that day or unable to schedule an appointment you may use the Walk-In Service. You will be seen on a first come first served basis by the nurse practitioner or doctor staffing the walk-in clinic that day. They have access to your medical records.
After-Hours Care
Our team understands that illnesses can happen at any time. We have a physician on call when the medical clinic is closed to help our registered clients with urgent matters. Please call 613-233-4697.
