Appointments
We are an "appointment only" facility. and do not accept "drop in" appointments. Our scheduling system enables you to make an appointment with your own physician on the day of your choice, often within two working days. We can also pre-book appointments. When your family physician is not available, our team of physicians and our Nurse Practitioners will continue to care for your needs. If you are unable to keep an appointment, please call and let us know as soon as possible so that someone else can be scheduled. 

Access Scheduling - 3 types of appointments

  • Same Day Access   Appointment spots are reserved each day for doctors to see patients the same day they call for an appointment.
  • Next Day Access   Some spots are reserved for people to see their doctor the day after they have called in.
  • Pre-booked   Appointments are spread throughout the schedule for bookings further down the line. These spots are great for Complete Check Ups and for people needing to advance book transportation, etc.

Our goal is that you can see your own doctor at the time that you need to or want to, often within 24 to 48 hours. For Access scheduling to work we also need the co-operation of our patients. The doctors are the Regina Community Clinic work as a Physician Group meaning that they will help care for each other patients. On a day that a physician is not regularly scheduled, or is away from the clinic, a Nurse Practitioner or another physician will be available. Please give Access a try the next time you need to book an appointment. Call our receptionist at 306-543-7880 for more information.

 

After-hours emergency service is available nights, weekends and holidays  (one of our doctors is “on-call” during those times) 

If your problem cannot wait until regular office hours:

► Call the clinic 

► The answering service will take your message and contact the doctor. 

► Call again IF you have not heard from the on-call doctor within 20 minutes.

► Don't go to a hospital Emergency Department until you have spoken to the on-call doctor, unless you feel that a delay in receiving medical care will be life-threatening. This may save you the trip or a long wait in emergency.

 
 

Frequently Asked Questions

About RCC

A co-operative, by definition, is an organization with a willingness and ability to work with others. It is owned by and operated for the benefit of those using its services.

There are four co-operative community clinics in Saskatchewan that not only provide wholistic primary healthcare to meet the needs of all their patients but also have the capacity/flexibility to highlight specific healthcare needs and tailor their services to meet the needs of specific populations within their locality. 

The populations and health needs vary. These include Indigenous health, rural health, and refugee health. Co-operative community clinics provide are capable of offering care and services to the most vulnerable populations which are often over-looked in the mainstream healthcare system.

The goal is not only to provide care for the patients’ physical and mental health but also services to provide social services and the well-being of their communities. Co-operative community clinics offer social and education services and programs to their members, patients, and members of the community in which they are located.

The Regina Community Clinic is the only healthcare co-operative in southern Saskatchewan.

As a co-operative, members have input into the direction of the clinic via an elected Board of Directors.  All members have a vote at annual general meetings and can become board members.  There is a balanced approach to governance of these clinics: patients also have input and are partners in their healthcare.

Co-operative community clinics offer a fiscally efficient, integrated approach to healthcare. They have demonstrated savings within the healthcare system by curbing demands on the larger system, and providing more patient-focused care.

Community clinics are a working model of what the health system in Saskatchewan and across Canada is considering as an alternative of providing health care needs.
