How Northstar Medical works

Care that knows your story. Northstar primary care and Northstar family primary care give you a dedicated nurse practitioner, a Welcome Visit to start your care, visits as often as you need, and continuity through an Annual Visit. A One Time Visit is still available when you only need care today.

On Northstar primary care or Northstar family primary care, you see a dedicated Ontario nurse practitioner — starting with a Welcome Visit, then as often as you need, including your Annual Visit. A One Time Visit still connects you with a licensed Ontario nurse practitioner for that day's concern. They can assess symptoms, diagnose many common conditions, prescribe when appropriate, and coordinate follow-up care.

Northstar Medical provides virtual primary care to patients in Ontario. You must be physically located in Ontario at the time of your visit so your provider can follow provincial practice standards.

No referral is required. Create your account and choose Northstar primary care, Northstar family primary care, or a One Time Visit — whether or not you already have a regular physician.

Isn’t it time your health care got to know you? You can start Northstar primary care or Northstar family primary care, or book a One Time Visit when you only need care today.

Northstar primary care covers prevention and screening, chronic conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes, mental health check-ins, and the non-emergency issues that come up over the years — essentially anything you would see a family physician for. A One Time Visit is for urgent, walk-in-style concerns when you only need care today.
