From primary care and specialist referrals to prescribing medications and ordering lab tests, GPs do it all. Unfortunately, over <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/ontariofamilyphysicians.ca\/news\/more-than-four-million-ontarians-will-be-without-a-family-doctor-by-2026\/#:~:text=As%20of%20September%202022%2C%20nearly,New%20research%2C%20led%20by%20Dr.\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2.3 million Ontarians<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> don\u2019t have one. And, with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oma.org\/advocacy\/prescription-for-ontario\/prescription-for-ontario-doctors-solutions-for-immediate-action\/#:~:text=Our%202022%2D23%20member%20survey,retiring%20early%20due%20to%20burnout.\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">many physicians<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> set to retire soon, that number will likely grow. By 2026, one in four Ontarians may be looking for a family doctor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Securing a GP may be especially difficult for provincial newcomers as the official instructions for getting one don\u2019t always yield results. Luckily, there are other options. Here\u2019s <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">how to find a family doctor in Toronto<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and how to access care if you don\u2019t have one yet.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>How to find a family doctor in Toronto<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We recommend registering with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/hcc3.hcc.moh.gov.on.ca\/HCCWeb\/faces\/layoutHCCHomePage.xhtml\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Health Care Connect<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> first. This is a provincial program that connects Ontarians with physicians nearby who are accepting new patients. However, while this is the official route to getting a family doctor, it probably won\u2019t be the fastest. Some Ontarians <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/toronto.citynews.ca\/2022\/10\/06\/ontario-family-doctors-crisis-waitlist-primary-care\/#:~:text=Last%20Updated%20October%206%2C%202022,as%20more%20healthcare%20professionals%20retire.\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">spend years on this list<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> before being matched with a new GP.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most health-related concerns can\u2019t wait that long. If you have a medical issue while you\u2019re waiting for a family doctor, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getmaple.ca\/for-you-family\/how-it-works\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">our providers can help<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Did you know that Maple <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getmaple.ca\/doctors\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">connects you with licensed Canadian doctors<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in minutes from your phone, laptop, or computer? During your consultation, the doctor can answer medical questions, order lab tests, or write you a prescription, if appropriate. You can also <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getmaple.ca\/providers\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">book a specialist appointment<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, no referral is necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Telemedicine can bridge the gaps, but you should still continue looking for a family doctor. To this end, use the search function on the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO)\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/doctors.cpso.on.ca\/?search=general\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">registry of Ontario physicians<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The registry doesn\u2019t specify which GPs are currently accepting new patients. However, it does allow you to filter by location as well as other requirements like gender and languages spoken.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For individuals seeking a family doctor explicitly committed to providing competent and accepting care to 2SLGBTQ folk, Rainbow Health Ontario\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rainbowhealthontario.ca\/lgbt2sq-health\/service-provider-directory\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">service provider directory<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> may be useful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tapping into your existing networks of friends, family, coworkers, and social media community groups may also help to generate leads.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you have a list of appropriate practices, warm up your dialing fingers. You\u2019ll need to start calling them to see if any are taking on new patients. Finding the Goldilocks zone of a GP that&#8217;s both accepting new patients and close to you can take a while. So try not to get discouraged if you don\u2019t have immediate success. Often, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">finding a family doctor in Ontario<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> comes down <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to how<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> much time you invest in the process.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>How can I see a family doctor if I don\u2019t have one yet?<\/h4>\n<p>If you don\u2019t have a GP or can\u2019t see yours quickly enough, you may want to visit your local walk-in clinic. Keep in mind, however, that these can get extremely busy. Some walk-in clinic waitlists fill up within minutes of opening. Getting your name on the list may mean lining up well before business hours begin.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, while it\u2019s the care alternative you\u2019re likely most familiar with, your local emergency room should be reserved for critical medical concerns only. ERs prioritize patients based on need. If you\u2019re using it for non-urgent issues like prescription refills or referrals, you\u2019re likely in for a lengthy wait.<\/p>\n<h4>Where can I get care for non-urgent issues?<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For non-urgent medical issues, prescriptions, and lab test requisitions, Maple helps you <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getmaple.ca\/doctors\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">connect with doctors online<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for diagnosis and treatment within minutes. Our on-demand platform lets you access care 24\/7 from wherever you are, whether you\u2019re at home in bed or working from the office.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And, if you <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getmaple.ca\/features\/online-prescriptions\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">get a prescription<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, our doctors can mail it to you or fax it to the pharmacy of your choice for pick up or delivery, straight to your doorstep.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Look to existing health resources<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nearby health centres may also be helpful resources for finding a family doctor. For example, your local hospital may know if any of their physicians are currently accepting new patients.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What\u2019s more, hospitals are often associated with family health teams. These practices provide comprehensive primary care by bringing together different healthcare providers including physicians. You may be able to find a practicing GP through one of these teams. Even if they don\u2019t currently have space, call back in the spring when family medicine residents graduate to see if any are starting their own practices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If these options don\u2019t yield a solid solution, consider turning to a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ontario.ca\/page\/community-health-centres\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">community health centre (CHC)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for care. Like family health teams, CHCs typically employ multidisciplinary teams. The catch is that they\u2019re specific about the populations they serve. This may mean that their primary aim is to provide care for newcomers, for example.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finding a GP that\u2019s taking new patients can feel like an impossible task. But, with a little bit of luck and a whole lot of <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">how-to<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you can <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">find a family doctor in Toronto<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
