Family Physicians After Hours Clinic was a walk-in clinic located at 1980 Ogilvie Road in Gloucester, Ontario, serving residents in the east Ottawa area and the surrounding K1J postal community. The clinic operated under an after-hours model, which meant patients could seek medical attention outside of regular family doctor office hours, a practical option for those dealing with non-emergency health concerns in the evening or on weekends.

Walk-in clinics like this one play an important role in the broader primary care network. They provide access to physician-led care for common medical needs such as minor illnesses, infections, prescription renewals, referrals, and general health assessments. For patients without a family doctor, or those whose regular physician was unavailable, an after-hours clinic offered a timely alternative to waiting for a scheduled appointment.

Gloucester is a community within Ottawa that includes a mix of residential neighborhoods and commercial areas along corridors like Ogilvie Road. Patients coming from nearby areas such as Beacon Hill, Blackburn Hamlet, or other east-end Ottawa communities would have found this location reasonably accessible.
