Ontario’s wait times at walk-in clinics have more than doubled in the past year, signaling a pressing challenge in healthcare accessibility across the province. According to a comprehensive report by Medimap, which leverages data from approximately 70% of the country’s walk-in clinics, Ontarians now face an average wait of 59 minutes to see a doctor — a sharp increase from the previous year’s 25 minutes.
This report, spotlighting the largest year-over-year increase in Canada, underscores the growing demand for immediate medical care and Medimap’s pivotal role in providing timely access to healthcare services.
