Book an Appointment with the Consulting Physician:
Call: (613) 969-1913, ext. 2374
Required for your Appointment with the Consulting Physician:
Ontario Students:
You must present a valid Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) Card for each appointment with the Consulting Physician at the Loyalist Student Health Centre. Doctor appointments are covered by the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP).
If you have a photo health card, ensure that it has not expired PRIOR to visiting the Loyalist Student Health Centre.
Out of Province Students: Check with your province before you come to the Loyalist Student Health Centre to find out what your health insurance is in Ontario. Bring your provincial Health Card, with the exception of Quebec residents. Since Quebec does not have a reciprocal agreement with Ontario, Quebec students will have to pay “out of pocket” for medical care.
International Students: Your tuition payment as an international student includes the mandatory annual health insurance through Guard.me which is arranged automatically for registered students.
Cancelling Appointments:
If you cannot make your appointment with the Consulting Physician, 4 hours notice is required:
Cancellation can be made with the Loyalist Student Health Centre:
By phone: (613) 969-1913, ext. 2374 – A message can be left on the Loyalist Student Health Centre’s voicemail
By email

Uninsured (non-OHIP covered) Services Policy
OHIP/Provincial healthcare does not pay for all services that you request from your doctor(s). Services that OHIP does not pay for are called “non-insured or uninsured services” and it is illegal and fraudulent for doctors to bill OHIP for them. In order to account for costs associated with these services and ensure prompt service, it is necessary and legal for our practice to charge for these services.
Every effort has been made to account for most of the community requested services in the Charges for Uninsured Services document. If the service requested is not listed, please communicate that to the office staff for further clarification. The fees are based on the Ontario Medical Association suggested fees as found in the 2018 EDITION of the OMA Physician’s Guide to Uninsured Services.
All uninsured services must be paid in full when rendered. You have the right to a receipt and the office staff will provide you with one upon settlement of your fees. We accept cheques and cash.
Please Note:
There are a number of EXEMPTIONS when charging for the completion of a third-party report form. The following list contains some of the common forms physicians are NOT permitted to charge for its completion:
Application for Accessible Parking Permit
Transit forms for a disability
Permanent Residence Cards
Request for Birth Certificate Forms
Children’s Aid Society Forms (on behalf of child)
Canada Passport Application
