Important notice regarding registration with our team
We understand that some recently published information may have suggested that the Eastern Ottawa Community Family Health Team is currently accepting new patients or maintaining an internal waitlist.
We would like to clarify that we are not accepting new patients at this time and that we do not maintain an internal waitlist.
Anyone looking for a family doctor or nurse practitioner must register with the provincial Health Care Connect / Accès Soins list. During registration, you may indicate your language preference if you wish to receive services in French.
Please do not call the clinic or send emails about this matter. No further information is available at this time. Calls and emails about this issue reduce our ability to manage daily clinic operations and serve our current patients.
We understand that finding a family doctor can be difficult and frustrating. Thank you for your understanding
Nutrition
What does healthy eating mean?
Eating healthy can have a different definition for each of us. It is for this exact same reason that the nutrition information that is available these days can seem to constantly contradict each other. So how do you know if you are eating well based on your needs? Our dietitian is on hand to offer personalized nutritional advice for clinic patients. Its role is to help you improve and maintain a good state of health by promoting the acquisition of healthy eating habits that respect your lifestyle and your needs.
A personalized consultation with our registered dietitian will allow you to learn more about the specific diet for certain health conditions. She will offer you advice on nutrition aimed at gradual and lasting changes in your eating habits and behaviors.
For a consultation with our Registered Dietitian, ask your doctor for a referral.
The most frequent reasons for consultations are:
tips and education for healthy eating
weight issues
hypercholesterolemia
cardiovascular disease prevention
nutritional deficiencies
digestive problems
