Your Doc Is In: Kootenay Boundary Clinics Are Open & Providing Virtual Care

Local practitioners want patients to know that clinics open and are providing phone and video appointments. If patients need to be seen in person, all the necessary precautions are in place based on the Provincial Health Officer’s guidelines.

Call your doctor first. They know you best.
