For Patients

Appointment or Walk-In?

You do not need an appointment to see a walk-in doctor at MCI The Doctor’s Office. When making an appointment with your family physician, the receptionist or healthcare professional on staff will ask about the nature of your health concern to allocate the appropriate amount of time. Multiple problems may require more than one appointment. Family doctors are available by appointment; please see our FAQ section for details. A range of medical specialists are available by referral at a number of our medical clinics. Please contact us for details, as the availability of MCI specialists may vary.

A Special Note to Our Patients

Due to the volume of test results coming to MCI clinics each day, normal results will not be reported to the patient. We will contact patients with abnormal results or for tests that require a follow-up visit to a clinic. Pregnancy test results will be reported in a phone call to the patient. If you wish to discuss test results with your doctor, please book a follow-up appointment for one to two weeks after the tests are done. MCI is pleased to provide our patients with medical laboratory services. Please note however that due to government license regulations, we can only process tests accompanied by a requisition from an MCI doctor.

Cancellations

If you cannot attend your MCI appointment, please cancel your appointment 48 hours in advance. This allows the clinic free up a spot for another patient waiting for an appointment.
Missed appointments without prior notice will be charged a fee.

Complete Physicals

As a part of your overall health, it is crucial to book a complete physical once a year. Ask your MCI healthcare professional to remind you of your last complete physical, and book your next physical well in advance. Yearly physicals give your MCI doctor an opportunity to assess your overall health when you are healthy, renew prescriptions and discuss preventative healthcare. We ask all patients to arrive at least 10 minutes early for these appointments, as some preliminary work is required before getting started.
