| - I was actually looking for a family doctor in Toronto and went through Healthcare Connect, and they really should NOT have sent me to this factory-style clinic. This is *not* a family doctor. This is a Walk-in Clinic pure and simple.
Also, as I've seen in multiple reviews, the front desk staff and reception seem rather uninterested and unprofessional. This is supposed to be my new family doctor, and when I call for an appointment, they direct me to merely "Walk In and wait whenever". Family doctors are actually supposed to keep track of patients some what, and you're supposed to be able to make an appointments, right? I had to tell the receptionist that I have a job, so no. I can't just walk in on a weekday and wait for an hour or two like a student. I prefer to have a fixed, proper appointment.
When it came to the doctor, well, she was ok.. She was kind of robotic, distracted and cold. I guess it's a very busy place and they get inundated with all walks of life so maybe social skills aren't a big priority. I can't blame them for being this way looking at the location though. I can't imagine what element they get right at Dundas. It's just I would like a family doctor that has a hint of a personality. My parents have doctors that remember who they are, are able to be pleasant, and able to keep track of their health. That's what I am looking for ( not a friend, a reasonably pleasant, competent doctor and a well run, professional office. I don't like feeling that I'm an inconvenience).
It just really comes across as nothing more than a quick Walk-In for Ryerson students or random injuries (could be decent for walk ins though). No one should take this place seriously for a long term family physician. Needless to say, I'm going back to Healthcare Connect to ask for a more traditional family practice. I'm not going back.
