| - Toronto Western's Family Health Team is an Academic Medical Centre-style, multi-disciplinary team. They have a multitude of 'staff' physicians as well as all of their residents (doctors-in-training) who you might end up seeing at some point. This system has good and bad points, you can often get in to see someone, if need be. But, you will need to wait to see your assigned person, because they aren't in this clinic Mon-Fri AM and PM.
After years of seeing only Medical Residents at the other hospital with this kind of program, I was ready for a change. So, now I see one of the Pod 4 Physicians and she has been really good.
Its amazing how much other health care professionals can do/know. TWH FHT has dieticians, pharmacists (who advise and counsel, not fill prescriptions), and some other helpful services.
Hard to talk to anyone to get an appt- often you leave a msg and they call you back, eventually.
