If you think you need medical attention, you have several options:
- Book an appointment at the Flu, COVID & Cold Clinic or, for children 17 and under, visit the walk-in clinic at McMaster Children’s Hospital.
- Make an appointment with your family doctor – for symptoms that can wait (which applies to most of us with a flu or common cold).
- Visit an urgent care centre – for symptoms that aren’t emergencies, but can’t wait to be seen by your family doctor.
- Go to your nearest emergency department or call 9-1-1 – for life-threatening illness or injury.
- Call Telehealth Ontario (1-866-797-0000) if you’re not sure whether or not you need to see a medical professional.
