Clinic Updates

Tick Reporting Update (updated May 16, 2023)

The Region of Waterloo is no longer accepting ticks for submission as the National Microbiology Lab is no longer testing blacklegged ticks for Lyme bacteria. If you find a tick attached to a family member or yourself, visit the eTick website (www.etick.ca) to identify the tick. If through this site the tick is identified as blacklegged or you cannot determine the type of tick, please contact our office, especially if you are feeling unwell. Symptoms usually appear from 3 days to up to a month after being bitten by an infectious tick, such as a circular “bulls eye” rash, headache, fever, chills, muscle/joint pain, swollen lymph nodes and/or fatigue.

 

Health Cards are Important

The Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) does not cover appointments with your doctor if your health card is invalid or expired. If you have recently updated your health card, please let us know by completing this form. There is a $40.00 fee for patients who present to their doctor appointment with an invalid/expired health card.

If you currently have an expired health card, please ensure you renew it. Click here for information on how to renew your health card.

Did you know? People aged 16-70 no longer receive reminders before your health card expires unless you choose to opt-into auto-reminders. Always check your health card and renew it up to 90 days before expiry.

Click here to opt into auto-reminders through Service Ontario.
