Find a family doctor or nurse practitioner

If you need a primary care provider, register on the Health Connect Registry to get matched with a family doctor or nurse practitioner in your community.

There is currently no anticipated timeline for a patient to be attached to a family doctor or nurse practitioner. We would like to thank you for your patience while you wait to be attached. In the interim, we suggest that you connect with the health care services below that best support your needs.
