The numbers of episodic events that are seen in primary care are infinite. From medication refills to asthma, and low back pain to respiratory infections, there are unlimited numbers of issues that come up in a primary care setting.

Whatever the case, Care& Family Health can assess, diagnose and treat episodic events via telemedicine. Telemedicine, or medical video chat, will connect you with a health care professional at Care& Family Health who can help over video chat with most minor and some chronic concerns.

This is how Care& Family Health can help – when it matters the most, we can offer you care, from evaluation to diagnosis to treatment, in our mid-town Toronto family clinic.
