Referring a Patient

If you have visited Mackenzie Health’s Emergency Department, Urgent Care Centre, any clinic or have been admitted to an Inpatient Unit recently, your attending physician may refer you to our clinic if required.

If you do not receive an appointment within one week, please call us at 905-883-1212 ext. 2388 to arrange your next available booking.

Eligibility for referral to our clinic is determined by the attending physician at the hospital. Priority is given to patients who do not have a family doctor or primary care provider.

What do I do when I arrive at the hospital?

Patients may park in the visitors parking lot, just north of the hospital, and enter through the D-wing entrance near the Emergency Department. Click here for more information on parking services. 

During peak hours, parking can take longer than expected. Please allow yourself extra time to accommodate this. Alternate options are to take public transit or be dropped off by a family member or friend. 

Check in at Patient Registration, located on Level 2, between the C-wing main lobby and the D-wing Emergency Department entrances where you will then be directed upstairs to our clinic.

How will our clinic help you find a family doctor in the community?  

Once you are referred to our clinic and consult with one of our in-hospital family doctors regarding any non-urgent medical concerns, we will provide you with a list of family doctors who are currently accepting new patients in the community and help you navigate to becoming a new patient with them. Our goal is to help you transition your care to a dedicated family doctor who can oversee all your medical needs. 

  

What is our navigation service?  

We support your transition to a permanent family doctor by offering temporary family doctor services at our clinic. Our Navigator will assist in guiding your care, ensuring follow-up on referrals from our physician and coordinate community support referrals as needed. 

When you give the gift of health this holiday season, you help ensure patients and families in our community continue to receive exceptional care close to home. Even better, when you donate before December 31, your donation will be matched by the Sgotto family, meaning your gift will have twice the impact!
