Are our services covered by OHIP?
Most of the medical services provided by our physicians are covered under OHIP according to provincial legislation. There are some exceptions to what is covered by OHIP, such as some injections, third party forms etc. For a list of what is not covered by OHIP for our physicians (coming soon)
How do I get an appointment?
If you are currently a patient of any of the SOSAEM physicians simply call the main office number (hyperlink) 289-266-3036 and our staff will assist you in booking an appointment. If you are a new patient or have not seen one of the SOSAEM physicians in more than two years, you will require a referral from your primary care physician or other physician to book an appointment. Referral forms can be obtained here
Do I need to be an athlete?
No! One of our mandates is to help all patients lead a healthy and active life at any age. While we see all levels of athletes from recreational weekend warriors to elite and professional athletes, we also see any patient who is having trouble being active at any level, due to an injury or illness. So, we welcome patients whether you have osteoarthritis and can’t participate in walking, or any physical activities, or you are an elite athlete with overuse or acute injury. If you are unsure if your condition is appropriate, please give us a call or send an email for more information.
