A new initiative for residents of Tillsonburg and surrounding area

Are you a resident of Oxford County without a Family Doctor or Nurse Practitioner? A new temporary unattached care clinic has been established in the Town of Tillsonburg to support individuals who do not currently have Family Doctor or Nurse Practitioner.

The Tillsonburg Unattached Care Clinic is operated by the Ingersoll Nurse Practitioner-Led Clinic (NPLC). The collaborative initiative has been made possible through funding from the Town of Tillsonburg and with the support of Oxford OHT partners, including the Ingersoll Nurse Practitioner-Led Clinic, Roulston’s Pharmacy – Tillsonburg, Tillsonburg District Memorial Hospital, and the Thames Valley Family Health Team.

This is not a walk-in clinic and appointments must be booked in advance. See below for details on how to book an appointment.

    You must live in Oxford County to be eligible. Residents from Tillsonburg and surrounding areas are welcome.

  • Who will provide my care at the clinic?

    The Clinic is operated by the Ingersoll Nurse Practitioner-Led Clinic. A welcoming, experienced team – including a Nurse Practitioner, a Registered Practical Nurse and Medical Office Assistant– help patients get the care they need.

    If additional services are needed, the clinic team may refer you to other healthcare providers or community resources to support managing your healthcare needs.

  • Why is the clinic temporary?

    The clinic will operate for one year from its opening date, with the goal of securing ongoing provincial funding to remain open. We know access to primary care is a growing concern, and we’re committed to finding sustainable solutions for the community.

  • I have a child under 5, can they go to the clinic?

    Yes, the clinic is for all ages.
    However, we encourage you to also explore the Oxford County Community Health Centre’s First Five program. This is a program for children aged 0-5 years old who do not have current access to primary care, and/or do not have an Ontario Health Card.
    Please note that the First Five Program does not offer episodic care (e.g., for sick visits). The program focuses on:

    • Well-baby and well-child visits
    • Vaccinations
    • Navigation and social supports for families

  • Is there a cost for this clinic?

    No.
