Online Booking Now Available
No more waiting on hold to book an appointment....
SCFH is now offering online appointment booking for their existing patients.
We understand that your time is valuable, and you may be unable to call during our clinic hours.
We are currently running a pilot program that allows existing patients at our clinic to book appointments using a secure online platform.
REMEMBER - If you are experiencing difficulty breathing, severe chest pains, or any other condition that could be life-threatening, please call 9-1-1 or go to your nearest emergency department.
For acute symptoms that appear, change, or worsen rapidly, you may call the clinic to be triaged accordingly. Please reference the list under the urgent care section for a list of other urgent matters.
As we monitor the success of this initiative, we will continue to add more doctors/nurses to this platform. Please note adjustments will be made over the course of the trial to help improve the online booking experience. We appreciate your patience.

Prescription Refills

It is very important that you don’t wait until the last minute to request a prescription renewal.
-
The best way to request a prescription renewal is to book an appointment well in advance of running out.
-
A phone call or faxed renewal request from the pharmacy requires at least 72 business hours for completion.
-
A prescription renewal without an appointment is not an insured service under OHIP. Starting on June 3, 2024, completion of these requests will be billed to the patient. There is no charge for requesting a refill prescription during an appointment.
-
We offer individual or family plans through PatientSERV to help you save on uninsured services. If you are interested, please call the office at 519-925-0017 or ask us at your next appointment.
