Department of Family and Community Medicine and St. Michael’s Academic Family Health Team

Urgent Medical Care Services



Our Family Health Team is committed to supporting your health care needs.

During regular clinic hours, our Family Health Team is available to help you with urgent illnesses or injuries that require same-day assessment. Our regular clinic telephone hours are from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. If you are not sure if your concern is urgent, please call anyways! We are happy to help determine the most efficient way for you to get care.

If you experience a serious life-threatening medical emergency, always go to your nearest emergency department or call 911.

What is NOT an urgent or same-day concern?

  • Prescription renewals: your pharmacy can fax a request to your provider or provide you with a bridging supply of non-narcotic medications
  • Forms: these should be dropped off in clinic for your regular provider to complete (please provide two weeks for completion)

After hours clinic locations for urgent care

If you have an urgent health concern outside of regular clinic hours (on evenings, nights or weekends) - we can help you! It is safer to be seen by your family health team at our after-hours clinics instead of another walk-in clinic because our team members can access your full medical history and quickly alert your regular provider that you were seen. As a patient of the St. Michael’s Hospital Academic Family Health team you can attend any of the after-hours clinics listed below regardless of where you receive your regular care!
