It is difficult for everyone to find a family physician and gain quick access to required medical specialists in the current situation of health care services in Quebec.

Most families from the Saguenay go to one of the walk-in clinics, the ER of one of the region’s three hospitals or a private clinic. 

Please also note that there is much demand for assessment services for children who show signs of hyperactivity with attention deficit and autism spectrum disorders. Waiting lists can be long.

If you need medical advice and don’t have a family physician,  you could also call Info-Santé hotline by dialing 811.

Dial 911 in case of an emergency.
