After-Hours Care
We recognize that urgent medical issues can arise outside of our regular office hours.
How do I know if the issue is urgent?
Examples of urgent medical concerns can include a new injury, chest pain, difficulty breathing, new abdominal pain, urinary tract infections, a sick child OR more that 48 hours of fever/vomiting/ diarrhea in adults.
Non-urgent concerns, such as follow-ups, prescription renewals, form completion and reviewing test results should be booked during regular clinic times with your primary family physician.

Telephone Health Advisory Service
While our physicians do reserve same-day appointments for urgent medical needs, you may not know if your issue can wait until the clinic opens. The Telephone Health Advisory Service (THAS) offers TW FHT patients after-hours telephone health advice. THAS is available outside regular clinic hours at 1-866-553-7205.
Maintain the circle of care. Please always avoid walk-in clinics.
