AFTER-HOURS CARE
We have joined the East Markham Family Health Organization (FHO), an association of 14 local physicians, at 6 convenient locations. A doctor from our Family Health Organization will be available during these ' after hours ' to attend to your urgent medical concerns
Monday to Thursday: 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm
Saturday: 9:00 am to 12:00 pm
We encourage our patients to call our number 905-477-0027 and our voice message system will inform you of the local on-call FHO colleague who is available to assist you. Records of your encounter will be communicated to Dr. Carson.
NOTE: Communication between your Healthcare Providers is essential for continuity of care and almost never happens when you visit a walk-in clinic. Hence we strongly discourage you from going to walk-in clinics.
For you, registering in a Family Health Organization means that you will have access to primary care treatment or telephone health advice 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Registration in our group will also entitle you to:
- Extended hours on evenings and weekends.
- After-hours access to a Telephone Health Advisory Service (THAS) whose qualified and experienced registered nurses will give you advice or refer you to medical or emergency services if needed.
To reach a registered nurse at the Telephone Health Advisory Service (THAS), please call 1-866-553-7205 (weekdays 5pm-9am; weekends Friday 5pm-Monday 9am). In an emergency, please go to the nearest hospital.
