How do I book an appointment?
We are no longer operating as a walk-in clinic; however current patients can now book all appointments online at their convenience HERE. If you have an urgent concern, please contact your clinic directly. For immediate medical attention, please call 911 visit your nearest urgent care center.
Does it matter if I don’t have a family doctor?
Most of our providers are not currently accepting new patients. Having a family doctor ensures you receive consistent, personalized care, support with chronic conditions, and coordinated access to other health services. If you’re looking for a family provider, we encourage you to register with the Health Connect Registry, which helps match patients with available physicians in your area. For urgent medical concerns, please visit your nearest hospital or urgent care center.
Can I get a referral to a specialist if that’s what I need?
Yes, if it’s mutually agreed between you and your provider that seeing a specialist is appropriate, we may have the specialist you need available on staff. If not, a referral will be made to the most suitable specialist for your care.
I need a refill on my medication. Can I do this over the phone or by fax?
We require you to visit with one of our Doctors to renew a prescription but now with our new online platform, you can have the appointment from home. You can arrange that appointment here.
How long will it take to get my referral/specialist appointment?
All specialists are different. Any referrals initiated at Care Point Medical & Wellness Clinics are faxed to the corresponding specialist within two business days of your doctor’s visit.

c) Exceptions for Emergencies
