Health Hubs: Virtual care options for non-emergency patients

Central Health would like to remind residents of two virtual primary care clinics - Health Hubs. Residents of Central NL who have non-emergent medical issues, who do not have a family physician or whose family physician is not available, are able to call the clinic and set up an appointment. A physician may contact the patient virtually (phone or video). If an in-person assessment is required, arrangements will be made to have this completed at a Health Hub clinic.

These clinics are located at the Gander Medical Clinic in Gander and at the Killick Clinic in Grand Falls-Windsor, but are for all residents of the Central Health region.

Clinics are open Monday to Friday from 8:00am to 8:00pm and Saturday and Sunday from 12:00pm to 6:00pm.

To reach the Health Hub clinic in your area, please call the Gander Medical Clinic at 709-381-0112 or 709-381-0338 and the Killick Clinic in Grand Falls-Windsor at 709-292-8404. https://www.centralhealth.nl.ca/post/health-hubs-virtual-care-options-for-non-emergency-patients
