Family Medicine Without a Booked Appointment
A walk-in visit lets you see a family physician without arranging an appointment in advance. Walk-in visits are part of the clinic's AHCIP-insured family medicine, so bring your Alberta Health Care number.
How long you wait depends on how busy the clinic is that day. Calling ahead, or booking a walk-in visit online, can help you plan.
Who Can Visit
Walk-in visits are welcome, including for people who are new to the clinic. Registered patients can also book with their own family physician online through Mikata or by phone.
Insured services are covered by the Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan (AHCIP). Some services, such as certain forms and notes, are not insured, and their fees are listed in advance.
New Patients
Male and female family physicians at Blue Diamond Medical are accepting new patients and walk-ins. If you are looking for a family doctor for ongoing care, see which of our physicians are currently accepting new patients.
Common Reasons to See a Family Physician
Family physicians look after a wide range of everyday health concerns, as well as the services below. Minor procedures are scheduled appointments rather than walk-in visits, and are booked by phone or in person.
Evening Availability
The clinic is open until 7:00 PM, Monday to Friday, so walk-in care is available after a typical working day. Availability on the day depends on demand, so call the clinic to check before you come.
Meet Our Family Physicians
Ask reception which physicians are seeing walk-in patients when you visit. Dr. Ahmed Gwea is a family physician with a Diploma in Dermatology from the Royal College of Physicians of Ireland and a clinical interest in dermatology.
