What is private family medicine?

Private family medicine is physician-led primary care delivered in a private clinic, focused on comprehensive and continuous care across life stages. Visits can cover prevention and screening, semi-urgent concerns, and ongoing management of chronic conditions. Your physician can coordinate referrals to specialists and help with medical documentation when appropriate.

What can I book a semi-urgent appointment for, and when should I go to the emergency department?

A semi-urgent appointment is for new or worsening symptoms that need timely assessment but are not life-threatening, such as urinary symptoms, sore throat, minor injuries, rashes, or medication issues. If you have chest pain, severe shortness of breath, signs of stroke, uncontrolled bleeding, or loss of consciousness, call 9-1-1 or go to the nearest emergency department.

Do you offer telemedicine visits, and what issues are suitable for virtual care?

Telemedicine can be appropriate for some follow-ups, medication renewals, reviewing test results, and certain new symptoms when a physical exam isn't required. If an in-person exam, vital signs, or onsite testing is needed, you'll be booked in clinic. Virtual care is not appropriate for emergencies.

Can you complete SAAQ, insurance, workplace forms, and medical notes?

Yes, medically appropriate documentation can be completed as part of a visit. Depending on the request, your physician may need a focused history, examination, or supporting records before signing forms (for example, SAAQ, insurance, work accommodations, or driver's licence assessments). Bring any required documents and deadlines to your appointment.

How do specialist referrals and follow-up work?

If your assessment suggests you need specialized care, your physician can initiate a referral and provide clinical context (history, exam findings, and relevant test results). You'll usually continue follow-up with your primary care team while waiting, and your plan may be updated once specialist recommendations are received. Referral timelines depend on urgency and local availability.

The health assessment is a comprehensive consultation designed to evaluate your overall health, prevent the onset of disease, and optimize your long-term well-being.

A complete physical examination is then performed to assess the different systems of your body. Depending on your age, risk factors, and current medical guidelines, we also recommend appropriate screening tests (blood work, cardiovascular screening, cancer screening, etc.).
Following this evaluation, we discuss the results with you, identify modifiable risk factors, and develop a personalized plan that includes prevention recommendations, lifestyle advice, and, if needed, medical follow-up or treatment.
