Your Primary Care Questions Answered
What is primary care?
In Canada, primary care serves as the initial point of contact for general healthcare needs. This includes diagnosis, treatment, chronic disease management, health promotion, preventive care, and education. Primary care providers, including family physicians and nurse practitioners, coordinate patient care and manage referrals, ensuring smooth transitions between healthcare settings and maintaining continuity of care.
Accessible primarily through provincial insurance plans, primary care in Canada emphasizes patient-centeredness, comprehensiveness, and coordination. However, in some provinces, private primary care options are also available, offering additional avenues for healthcare access.
What is a primary care clinic? What kinds of care are available?
Within the WELL Health Clinic Network, a primary care clinic is a location that offers one or both of family practice and walk-in services, providing accessible and convenient care for a wide range of healthcare needs.
Primary care clinics can help patients with routine care such as appointments for the following:
- Obtaining a doctor’s note
- Requesting a prescription or refill
To help provide our patients with convenient and comprehensive care, many of our primary care clinics are considered WELL Health Medical Centres, where you’ll also find specialists and allied health professionals all under one roof.
For example, at many WELL Health primary care clinics, specialists in everything from internal medicine and aesthetic dermatology to immunology & allergy can also operate in the same location as physiotherapists, other allied health professionals and walk-in and family doctors.
What makes a WELL Health primary care clinic different?
Our primary care clinics prioritize better healthcare experiences for both patients and healthcare providers by using the latest technology, with many locations allowing patients options such as:
- Quickly make, change, and cancel appointments with online booking
- Access your medical records and get appointment reminders
- Spend less time waiting by pre-booking your walk-in appointment
- Better in-clinic experiences with self-check-in and digital wayfinding
