Questions
Common questions.
Do I need an annual physical every year?
Ontario family physicians increasingly use periodic health reviews based on age, risk, and clinical need rather than an identical yearly exam for every patient. Your physician can advise what schedule is appropriate for you.
Can the clinic arrange screening tests?
Yes. When clinically indicated, your physician can discuss and arrange appropriate laboratory tests, imaging, or provincial screening programs.
