Program Details (Back to Programs)
Primary health care serves as your central foundation and first point of contact within the medical system. In Canada, your family physician acts as the essential "point of entry" for the vast majority of your health needs, coordinating your overall medical care and ensuring system-wide continuity.
Comprehensive Medical Care:
Family physicians diagnose and treat common health problems across all age groups. When specialized diagnostic tools or intensive therapeutic interventions are required beyond a general practice, your primary care provider coordinates referrals to the most appropriate medical specialist.
