This clinic offers essential primary care support for patients who do not have access to a family doctor or nurse practitioner on a regular basis.
About the North York Community Care Clinic
The North York Community Care Clinic (NYCCC) connects patients with a nurse practitioner on a temporary basis to ensure they receive necessary care while they wait for a permanent primary care provider (family doctor or nurse practitioner).
This clinic provides essential health care services, including health checks, chronic condition management (for diseases such as diabetes or heart disease), prescriptions, cancer screenings and vaccinations. You will receive care through our partners, Get Well Clinic and Baycrest Hospital.
