Brining back one of the most asked questions from the sub reddit.

I am downtown core area.

The only one I am seeing is the care& family health way out in Yorkville. And the want $300 annually.

I hate the idea but almost desperate enough to pay it.

Solved

Found one near downtown. They had a broken website so they somehow didn’t get noticed. Grace medical.

    considering that the government knows exactly where every MD is working, and how much they are billing (at least via OHIP), the HCC service should be reasonable. However it seems to rely on MDs to request to be on it and who knows how quickly the information gets updated when they do.

    Big problem is there aren’t enough family practice providers in ontario. Like half the people in ontario do not have family practice provider.

    If I was you I would stay with the place you are with if you can avoid paying $300. Just refuse. Can they fire you as a patient for refusing to pay? Fuck that fee shit! They get paid very nicely via OHIP. I don’t pay any money for up-charges on family health care even if I can afford because these people should NOT be charging. Greedy shit. And you can know they do not care about you except for your $$$. They will give you too much or too little depending what they think will make them $$$.

    Keep asking around and if you find a place that is actually taking patients, then sever ties with the greedy parasites and go with a real health care provider.

    Here is what the CPSO suggests: Resources for Finding a New Doctor. I didn’t listen but their front page has ‘In Dialogue’ Episode 17: Primary Care Crisis: How Did We Get Here? – eDialogue prominently displayed. For one side of the story.
