About HRFHT
Humber River Family Health Team (HRFHT) offers a wide variety of specialized services to our patients.
Our program and services are delivered in a team based care model that includes physicians and an in-house clinical team of Health Care Professionals (i.e. Nurse Practitioners, Registered Nurses, Dieticians, Social Workers, Chiropodist, Health Promoter/Educator and Pharmacists) alongside other community service providers.
Strong partnerships are cultivated and sustained with our community, and we work hard to ensure that programs and services are effective, respectful, and embrace the ethnic and cultural diversity of the community we serve.

What will FHTs mean to me?
- Your family doctor will continue to see you during regular office hours.
- You will have access to Nurse practitioners, Nurses, Dieticians, Pharmacists and Social Workers.
- You will have access to a FHT doctor during evening and weekend hours for urgent problems.
- If you see another doctor at the clinc, your own doctor will receive documentation about the nature of your problem so that he/she will always be up-to-date about your medical condition.
What is a Family Health Team (FHT)?
- Most FHTs consist of doctors, nurses, nurse practitioners, and other health care professionals who work together, each using their experiences and skills so that the patient receive the very best care.
