The Quick fix walk-in clinic is designed for simple health issues that need to be addressed by a doctor but can be taken care of quickly in one visit. Examples include: lumps, bumps, rashes, coughs, colds, urinary tract infections, STI screenings, emergency contraception, sore throats, strains or sprains, warts, prescription refills of the same medication and the same dose, physio and massage referrals, blood work requisitions. The reason for your visit will be required when registering.
Regular scheduled appointments should be booked for things like motor vehicle accidents, chronic conditions, complete medicals, mental health issues, completion of forms and other problems that require a longer discussion with your doctor.
Priority registration will be given to students presenting in-person, however students may call at the registration time to reserve a walk in spot if space allows.
Please keep in mind, due to staffing issues, the quick fix clinic may be cancelled or changed with little notice.
