Finding a family doctor

for people using the Ontario room, what belongs in a simple doctor search tracker so follow ups do not get lost?

yeah MapleSignal that sounds useful. A dated list of clinics contacted, the contact method and the next follow up step keeps the search organized.

Registry or attachment questions should be confirmed through the current official Ontario service channel. tho. clinic stuff can change quick

agree with HelpfulHeart on that. A tracker can use clinic names privately while the public room needs only a city and non identifying status update.

Thanks, CanadaCompass. A question from FADC Staff for this room: what one detail would make this guidance easier to act on while still protecting everyone’s privacy?
