Family Medicine
If life is a journey we are here to accompany you for the ride. The process of becoming a patient generally begins as a “meet and greet” appointment where you get the opportunity to tell our doctors about yourself (i.e. medical history, personal life, etc). After we become familiar with your background, a plan to address your future medical needs will be created. Our doctors are well-versed in healthcare delivery at all ages and look forward to the development of long-term patient and family relationships.
Our ability to accept new patients changes with time and depends on how many doctors are working at the clinic. Please phone our us for updates on whether we are currently accepting patients. If we are not accepting patients, you can request to be added to the waitlist and our staff will update you when an opening arises.

As part of the Mosaic Primary Care Network, we are able to connect you with a dietician for a personalized food plan free of charge! Come to the Forest Lawn Medical Clinic to start your journey today.
Woman’s Health/ Prenatal care
In terms of contraception, there are many options available. If you are unsure which option is best for you, book an appointment with one of our doctors to discuss the pros and cons of each to help you make an informed decision. We do intrauterine device insertions (i.e. IUD) in the clinic and can provide referrals for speciality services (ex. implant insertion products, tubal ligation, or other surgical procedures).
If you are instead interested in starting a family and are unsure what is involved from a medical perspective, book an appointment with one of our doctors to find out. Your first appointment should begin as early in the pregnancy as possible: ideally before even getting pregnant! There are many important time frames involved in the investigations surrounding pregnancy (i.e. blood work, ultrasounds, etc) so it is important to get in touch with us. If you were unaware of this and have already progressed further in your pregnancy, no need to worry, just book an appointment with us as soon as you can to get the process started.
Virtual Medicine
Telephone appointments are a reasonable option for non-urgent medical issues that do not require a physical examination, such as follow-up questions, review of consultations, or other similar concerns. If you are unsure whether your reason qualifies for a telephone appointment, please contact the clinic and our reception team will be happy to advise you.
Our clinic does not offer telephone or virtual appointments for medication refills. Refill requests require an in-person appointment.
Please note that telephone appointments are not scheduled for a specific time. The physician may call at any point on the day of your appointment. In some cases, calls may occur later in the day after in-person appointments have been completed, depending on physician availability.
Referrals
There are many services that require a doctors referral including:
-Imaging (ex. MRI, CT, etc)
-Procedures (ex. colonoscopy, cyst removal, surgery, etc).
-Specialist consultation (ex. psychiatry, pediatrics, etc)
Let us know if you are in need of a higher level of care and we will get the process underway to ensure your needs are met.
WCB Claims
Process for WCB usually starts with filing a report and ordering basic investigations. After this, a treatment plan along with regular follow-up is arranged to support you in the process of recovery and will help you get back to your normal self.
Tobacco Dependence / Alcohol Use Disorder
The scientific basis of tobacco use disorder and alcohol use disorder are becoming increasingly understood and recognized as medical conditions. If you are interested in discussing treatment options (counseling, medications, etc), book an appointment to speak with our doctors.
