Mobile primary care clinics in Mulgrave

Nova Scotia Health’s mobile primary care clinic has these upcoming clinic dates:

Mulgrave Medical Clinic
403 Murray Street, Mulgrave
Saturday, April 27 from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

This is not a drop-in clinic. To schedule an appointment, please call 902-919-5340. Phone lines will be open at 8:30 a.m. on April 27 for same-day appointment booking. The number of appointments each day is limited.

Have your health card and a list of medications ready upon arrival. Care will be provided using a team approach, which includes nurse practitioners and family physicians.

This clinic is not a substitute for your primary care provider (doctor or nurse practitioner). If you have a primary care provider, we encourage you to call their office first to see if they have any same-day appointments available. However, there are times when you may not be able to see your primary care provider, or you do not have a primary care provider. Your patience is greatly appreciated as we aim to provide you the best possible care.

The clinic can only address non-urgent, low-acuity health issues and is not an emergency service. See a list of the types of concerns below if you are not sure where to go.
