What is a Family Health Team?
A Family Health Team is an approach to primary health care that brings together different health care providers to co-ordinate the highest possible quality of care for you - the patient.
Designed to improve and expand access to primary care, most Family Health Teams consist of doctors, nurses, nurse practitioners, social workers, dietitians and other health care professionals who work collaboratively, each utilizing their experience and skills so that you receive the very best care, when you need it, as close to home as possible.
Our Leadership
The Family Health Team is governed by physicians and community volunteers. You can find more information under the Board of Directors Heading. Our Executive Director is Paul Hoban and can be reached at 519-470-3030 ext 112.
