Academic Family Health Team - Toronto site

To book an appointment or contact your primary care provider, please review the instructions and contact information on our care team page. Please review our frequently asked questions for answers to common patient questions, such as how to renew a prescription or get your test results.

We answer calls Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. If you have an urgent health concern and would like an appointment on the same day, please call us between 8:30 a.m. and 11 a.m. We will do our best to accommodate your request.

How to prepare for your appointment

Please bring your health (OHIP) card and a list of all your current medication and supplements with you to each appointment.

If you have a virtual appointment, we will provide you with instructions about how to access your appointment. Please be ready fifteen minutes before your appointment time. Your physician may call later than expected as they wrap up consultations with other patients.

If your appointment is regarding a dermatology (skin) issue, please email a picture to [email protected] at least 24 hours in advance of your appointment. This gives us time to place the photo in your chart and prepare for your appointment.

How to cancel your appointment

Appointments with our team are in high demand. Cancelling your appointment as early as possible allows another person the opportunity to access timely medical care. We kindly ask that you that you contact our office 24 hours before your scheduled appointment to cancel or re-book. Failure to do so may result in a minimum cancellation fee of $50.

We are a teaching clinic

At our clinic, staff physicians, residents, interprofessional health-care workers and administrative staff work together as a team to provide continuity of care and ensure that you receive comprehensive, high-quality care.  

This means that during your visit, you may be cared for by a resident physician. Residents are physicians who have completed medical school and are undergoing postgraduate training to specialize in family medicine.

While your staff physician may not always be present in the examination room during your visit, they are always directly involved in your care by supervising and directing the care provided to you by the resident.

Thank you for helping us train the next generation of family physicians.
