Appointments are required to see a doctor or nurse. No Walk-Ins will be accepted. In order for you to book appointments online and receive emails from our office, you need to register on MEDEO.

Each doctor will reserve appointments for specific issues/short visits. (Scheduling for concerns that require more time such as physicals, talks and counselling will continue to be made by phone through our secretaries.) Online booking and secure messaging are available through Medeo.

Important Notes to Remember

We have become a Family Health Organization (FHO).The FHO is designed to improve your accessibility to your primary care provider for urgent concerns and avoid unnecessary use of walk-in clinics or the Emergency Department. Because your health record is with us, this ensures better care. Changes include:

  • Same day time slots are available for you to get an appointment for urgent concerns. We recommend calling or emailing earlier in the day to access one of these appointments.
  • Hours of availability extended with our After-Hours Clinic, by appointment only, for patients of our clinic and the Watson Medical Clinic (561 Eglinton Ave. West). To schedule an appointment for an urgent concern, call 416-907-8184 during the first 2 hours that the After-Hours Clinic is open (5-8pm: Mondays-Thursdays and 9am-12pm: Saturdays and Sundays). Please leave a message and you will receive a call back informing you of the time and location for your appointment. Do not email a request for an appointment for the After-Hours Clinic.  Emails are not monitored for this clinic
  • Non-urgent/elective visits such as physicals may now take longer to book. However, this does not affect timely visits for appointments such as well-baby or obstetrical visits.

On days when the office is closed and when there is no clinic available, call 811 to contact a registered nurse at Health811(previously known as Health Connect Ontario, which replaced Telehealth Ontario). This service is available 24 hours/7 days a week and is free. The nurse will advise you on next steps. IF THIS IS AN EMERGENCY, PLEASE GO TO THE NEAREST EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT
