What this website is — and is not
The pages on primehealthcare.ca describe the services we offer, the conditions we commonly treat, and how systems such as the Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule (SABS), WSIB and extended-health insurance work in Ontario. The content is written by our clinicians and front office, reviewed by us, and updated periodically. It is intended to help you make informed decisions about whether and how to seek care.
This website is not a substitute for an in-person assessment by a regulated health professional. Information presented here may not be accurate for your specific situation, and clinical recommendations can only be made after an individual assessment.
Emergencies
If you are experiencing a medical emergency — chest pain, signs of stroke (FAST), serious bleeding, severe difficulty breathing, suspected fracture with deformity, severe head injury, suicidal thoughts or any other potentially life-threatening situation — call 911 immediately or go to your nearest emergency department. Do not rely on this website or our clinic phone line for emergency care.
Use of information on this site
- Do not self-diagnose. Differential diagnosis requires clinical examination.
- Do not start, stop or change any prescription medication based on information here.
- Do not delay seeking medical attention because of something you read on this site.
- Always consult a regulated health professional for advice tailored to your situation.
No clinician-patient relationship
Visiting this website, reading our blog, or completing our online booking widget does not establish a clinician-patient relationship. That relationship is established only at your in-person or telehealth appointment, when a regulated health professional has assessed you.
