The Medical Assessment Clinic, formerly known as the Medical Triage Clinic, provides semi-urgent assessment and care from internal medicine and infectious diseases sub-specialties.
Patients may be referred from the Stavro Emergency Department by physicians within the hospital or from community family physicians via the SCOPE program. Patients may also receive follow-up care from this clinic after being discharged from the hospital.
The clinic provides timely access to medicine assessment and treatment. Our clinic works with other areas of the hospital to arrange urgent tests and other specialist assessments if needed. Within our clinic, we provide care for patients with liver conditions, infectious diseases, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and Hepatitis B and C.
Patients require a referral from a physician or nurse practitioner (NP) to be seen by a specialist in the Medical Assessment Clinic. Referrals can be found linked on the right-hand side of this page.
If you are a referring physician or NP, please fax your form to 416-469-6253. If you wish to refer a patient to a specific physician, please indicate the physician’s name on the referral.
PLEASE NOTE: This is not a rapid-assessment emergency clinic. Please direct your patient to the nearest Emergency Department if the reason for your referral is an emergency or an urgent medical concern.
