Our Services
At the Kawartha North Family Health Team, we provide primary health care services through our expert
team of physicians, nurse practitioners, and support staff. However, our total health and wellness
philosophy extends well beyond the “traditional” doctor’s visit to encompass…
• A focus on lifestyle and overall physical and emotional wellness
• A focus on hearing from and offering a range of services and programs to all members of our
community… not just our primary care patients
• A focus on prevention and multidisciplinary care that integrates the services of other health
providers and supports in our area
• A focus on one-on-one. Our patients aren’t just a health card number. They’re people, and we
want to walk with them on a lifetime journey of health and health care.
The kinds of services we provide include:
• Comprehensive primary health care services to our registered patients
• Community “walk-in” clinics
• Services by a Nurse Practitioner are open to all members of and visitors to our area.
These services are offered at locations in Bobcaygeon and Fenelon Falls.
Preventative health programs and activities are geared to health prevention and overall wellness,
ranging from walking and exercise programs to smoking cessation, blood pressure and med-checks,
healthy diet, and more.
Phlebotomy (blood-work and lab) services are provided by the Kawartha North Family Health Team as
a joint-venture with the City of Kawartha Lakes Family Health Team and available to patients of either
family health team. These services are offered at our 100 East St. S. location in Bobcaygeon and at the
City of Kawartha Lakes Family Health Team’s 205 Francis St. E. location in Fenelon Falls.
Mental health and addiction recovery services are provided by our on-staff counselling services to our
patients for emotional and mental health. These are complemented by activities and programs offered
to all members of the community as part of our preventative health approach. We also provide referral
to community support services and specialized medical treatment.
