Nurse Practitioners
Nurse Practitioner-Led: Our clinic is led by Nurse Practitioners (NPs), also known as Registered Nurses in the extended class (RN-EC), who have undergone extensive education, clinical experience, and licensing requirements set by the College of Nurses of Ontario (CNO).
Comprehensive Care: NPs are authorized to provide a full range of health care services, blending clinical skills from nursing and medicine to assess, diagnose, and manage acute and chronic illnesses. As autonomous practitioners, NPs can diagnose, order and interpret diagnostic tests, and prescribe medications and treatments.
Health Promotion and Disease Prevention: Our focus extends beyond diagnosis and treatment. We emphasize health promotion, disease prevention, and chronic disease management, providing a comprehensive perspective on health care.
Collaborative Care: We believe in empowering our patients to actively participate in their health care decisions. We work independently and in collaboration with other health care professionals to ensure that our patients receive the best possible care at all stages of life.
