Fixing family medicine will be the single most important priority of an Ontario Liberal government<\/span><\/p>\n

BRAMPTON, ON<\/span>\u2014Bonnie Crombie, Leader of Ontario\u2019s Liberals, today announced her comprehensive plan to guarantee every person in Ontario has a family doctor close to home by the end of her first term as Premier.<\/p>\n

The Liberals\u2019 plan to deliver\u00a0A Family Doctor For You<\/span>\u00a0would:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Educate, attract and retain thousands of new domestic and internationally trained family doctors.<\/li>\n
  2. Improve the Ontario Health Team network, using it to massively expand access to family doctors practicing in teams close to your home within four years.<\/li>\n
  3. Modernize family medicine, put an end to fax machines once and for all, and make appointments available on evenings and weekends.<\/li>\n
  4. Stop penalizing patients and doctors if they seek care at walk-in clinics.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \u201cYou can\u2019t find a family doctor. Wait times have exploded. And hospitals are actually shutting their doors to people who need help,\u201d said Bonnie Crombie, Leader of Ontario\u2019s Liberals. \u201cDoug Ford has deliberately destroyed our health care system, and you and your family are paying the price.\u201d<\/p>\n

    \u201cYou deserve to have a trusted relationship with your doctor who is available and invested in the best interest of your health \u2013 no matter your age, health conditions, or where you live.\u201d<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_cta title=\u201dWe need change \u2013 click here to find out why\u201d button_text=\u201dClick Here\u201d title_tablet=\u201dWe need change \u2013 Click here to find out why\u201d title_phone=\u201dWe need change \u2013 Click here to find out why\u201d title_last_edited=\u201don|phone\u201d _builder_version=\u201d4.27.2\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d header_line_height=\u201d1.3em\u201d height=\u201d100px\u201d height_tablet=\u201d140px\u201d height_phone=\u201d\u201d height_last_edited=\u201don|tablet\u201d link_option_url=\u201dhttps:\/\/ontarioliberal.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/A-Family-Doctor-For-You_Backgrounder.pdf\u201d link_option_url_new_window=\u201don\u201d border_radii=\u201don|9px|9px|9px|9px\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d theme_builder_area=\u201dpost_content\u201d][\/et_pb_cta][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
