- Fraser Medical Clinic is a full service primary care facility promoting the health of our patients by providing highest-quality, innovative, comprehensive, personalized health-care.
- Fraser Medical Clinic offers adjunct allied health care professionals to assist with the complexities of the management of chronic diseases and co-morbidity. They include rotating Diabetic Nurse Educator, Chronic Disease Management nurses and periodic Respiratory Therapist clinics to assist with COPD, CHF and asthmatic patients. The physicians, nurses and RT’s work as a team to encourage patient education, life style modification, and prevention as critical aspects to optimal long-term health. Whether that’s a new insulin start, a patient that just isn’t responding to treatments, one that is not yet at treatment target, foot care, the completion of the required documentation expected by the college (such as written action plans), establishing and documenting COPD action plans and so on necessary, but time consuming. Our physicians are able to use their clinical and diagnosing skills for other patients knowing that these patients are getting the required follow up.
- The ongoing partnership with these professionals is not typical in the GP setting.
- One of our associates is Dr. Lyn Killick a psychiatrist whose focus is Adult outpatient psychiatry. She has been an invaluable service to our practices as she is quite amenable to get patients in quickly as necessary. Referrals to Dr. Killick are required by the General Practitioner and reviewed by Dr. Killick.
- Having these providers working in our team based approach helps develop long-term relationships, patients are empowered to make informed lifestyle and health care decisions, and our physicians have the time to partner with patients to minimize their risks of developing disease.
- This minimizes the stress on physician and staff alike. Patients also feel they can always get what they need, when they need it.
- We will soon have a completely new space with focus on new innovative systems to improve work flow – new IT, phone systems, enhanced EMR, online bookings, and new website.
