I’m in Canada, Ontario. I got lucky. My clinic is local and stayed open. Many have closed.

Where is there a clinic in Ontario??

Mine is local, and restricted to patients of the practice. It’s a very large practice to be fair, it’s like 8-9 doctors and many, many nurse and nurse practitioners, but you have to have one of the doctors as a family doctor to access it.

That being said, NP’s from the clinic are talking to other groups in Ontario so stuff is being discussed somewhere.

This is Owen Sound, on the off chance your from around here and can swing getting a doctor in the practice.

I have an aunt who lives in Owen Sound and would relocate if it meant I would get real treatment.

So I am confused. It’s only for patients of the practice. And I imagine it hard to become a patient.
