WATERLOO REGION, ON – July 10, 2025 – Today marks the official launch of DoctorList.ca, a free and public web platform designed to help individuals and families across Canada quickly locate family physicians who are currently accepting new patients.

Created by a local medical IT firm in the Waterloo Region, DoctorList.ca aims to address the ongoing challenge many Canadians face in accessing primary care. The easy-to-use site offers a growing, community-sourced directory of clinics and doctors — searchable by city, region, or postal code — that are open to new patients.

“Access to family doctors is a foundational part of our healthcare system, but too many people are left guessing where to go or calling around aimlessly,” said the team behind DoctorList.ca. “We wanted to build a simple, accurate, and regularly updated resource that takes the frustration out of the process.”

Key Features:

• View clinic contact info, hours, and direct links
• Updated weekly to ensure accuracy
• Built with privacy and public benefit in mind — no signups or ads

Clinics listed on the site are verified through public notices, direct outreach, and local partnerships. Healthcare providers can also request updates or submit corrections to ensure the data remains reliable.

We also encourage doctors and clinics with a full patient roster to point unattached patients to DoctorList.ca as a helpful resource. This can help reduce the burden on clinic staff and ensure patients in need are directed to providers who are currently available.

For Ontario residents who are unable to find a physician through the site, we also recommend registering with Health Care Connect, a government service that helps people without a family doctor or nurse practitioner find one. You can learn more and register here:

DoctorList.ca is already making an impact in Waterloo Region and is actively expanding to support other areas.

About DoctorList.ca
DoctorList.ca is a public service website created by a local healthcare IT team to improve access to family doctors in Waterloo Region. The site is freely available to all users and built with a focus on accessibility, simplicity, and accuracy.

In an age where digital reliability is critical to modern healthcare, Grandview Medical Centre has taken a major step forward by partnering with NetOptiks to upgrade and future-proof its connectivity infrastructure. A recent case study released by the NetOptiks highlights how it delivered a secure, high-performance network tailored to the demanding needs of a busy medical environment.

The upgrade was prompted by the clinic’s increasing reliance on digital records, remote consultations, and secure communication between staff, specialists, and patients. With a growing volume of telehealth services and electronic patient record access, Grandview required a solution that could guarantee uptime, speed, and compliance with privacy standards.

NetOptiks stepped in with a custom-designed fiber network offering full redundancy, low-latency performance, and end-to-end encryption. The infrastructure was specifically engineered to support Grandview’s clinical workflows and ensure continuity in care—even during power disruptions.

“Reliable connectivity is no longer optional in modern healthcare—it’s mission critical,” the case study notes. “Our goal was to ensure Grandview could operate with complete confidence in its digital backbone, whether it’s during routine checkups or emergency care.”

The project also positions the clinic for future technologies, including Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) integration, cloud-based services, and AI-driven diagnostics.

This partnership reflects a growing trend in Canadian healthcare toward robust, localized IT solutions designed to support both present and future patient care needs.
