  • You have signs or symptoms of cancer. We do not offer other primary care services or diagnostic services. If you have a current medical complaint, please access care through available walk-in clinics.

How do I make an appointment?

Patients can self-refer to the Champlain Screening Outreach by calling 1-833-551-4125 or by booking an appointment online.   

Your first appointment will be a phone call. If an in-person appointment is required, you will be seen at one of our various locations across the region.

Please take a moment to review our consent form.
