Walk-In Clinics

Local & Immediate Care

The nurse and nurse practitioner will see clients on a first-come, first-served basis. No appointment is necessary and you do not need to be a client of NorWest Community Health Centres. Services are free with a valid Ontario Health Card. Our clinic in Thunder Bay is one of the few to be open on Saturday and Sunday.

We provide care for:

• Coughs and cold
• Fever
• Ear ache
• Sore throat
• Infection
• Pregnancy testing
• Sexual health
• Birth control
• Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI) and HIV testing
• Stitches and suture removal (for minor cuts)
• Hepatitis and tuberculosis (TB) testing

Please note: These clinics are not for medical emergencies. Anyone with a life-threatening illness or injury should go directly to the closest emergency department or call 911.
