About Portage Clinic

The Portage Clinical Teaching Unit is a select group of community physicians chosen by the Rady Faculty of Health Sciences at the University of Manitoba to teach medical trainees. Trainees are assigned to Portage Clinic physicians to learn patient-care skills by working closely with our physicians and health care team. As a patient, you should know that the presence of a medical trainee means that your doctor has been identified as not only an exceptional physician, but also an exceptional role model and teacher. The Clinical Teaching Unit is responsible for teaching 3rd and 4th year medical students as well as doctors who are specializing in family medicine (residents). Portage Clinic is one of the nine rural teaching programs which also include Dauphin, Brandon, Morden/Winkler, Steinbach, Selkirk, Thompson, Northern Remote and St. Anne/Notre Dame. Students spend five weeks in the Portage Clinic as part of a rural rotation, while residents may spend anywhere from 7 months to 18 months during their two-year family medicine residency.

Having multiple students at one site is considered a strength of the program. While at the Portage Clinic, the students and residents see patients in the clinic and hospital. They participate in surgery and are expected to be on call for the emergency department and for delivering babies. All students are supervised by an attending physician, but the level of supervision depends on the students’ level of training. A patient seeing a med student should expect to see their own family physician; however, a family medicine resident may feel comfortable dealing with a patient on his/her own. All patients are reviewed with an attending physician by the end of the day. Portage Clinic physicians are committed to teaching and they encourage you as a patient to engage a student. We believe that teaching keeps Portage Clinic physicians current and is an excellent tool for recruitment and sustainability in the community. Several of the physicians that are presently practicing in Portage Clinic first came here as students and/or residents.

Portage Clinic physicians appreciate the willingness of their patients to involve a student in their care and believe it will continue to be a positive experience!

Best Doctor in Canada

M	Matt Blair on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The place is a joke, "walk in" is by appointment only, front staff can't even get a persons name right, calling me Darin on the phone. They book you appointments with a new family doctor only to cancel a month later and tell you your SOL because THEY messed up and booked you with a Doctor who's not actually taking new patients. Now I'm told I need to call the back second week of march (4 weeks away) and try again to get put on a waiting list to see a family Doctor, when their incompetence caused this issue.
R	Rahul Chopra on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I suggest them to change their name from walk-in clinic to appointment-in clinic.
M	Marie Maendel on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's neat,clean, lots of space where you can sit and wait to be called in for your appointment. Reception they are kind friendly and very helpful. I have no complaints about the clinic it's top notch in my opinion.
J	J C on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Horrible Customer Service. Reception NEVER picks up the phone-they screen ALL their calls so as soon as you call back, they will not pick up because they see that you just called from the same number. Get a different doctor somewhere else because you will never get any service from Portage Medical Clinic unless you actually walk into the place. Very cruel of Receptionists.
A	Aaron Levasseur on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Receptionist is rude to native ppl portage knows a native by their last name. If you dont like your job, someone else will.
A	Amanda Friesen on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very prompt friendly staff , polite asking simple understandable questions. Appearance very professional &clean. Fast visit in and out in 15 mins. Thanks ladies?
J	Jeff Harder on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beware Dr Niagara, she is legally not allowed to see my daughter. If you want to abuse or sell your presciption she maybe right for you ...... not sure who benefits ? but I doubt these kinda of actions would happen without compisation......
D	Debbie P on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I am very upset right now. I have been waiting months to get in on a referral for my ear. Reception phoned just now - very nice gal... not her fault... but the Dr won't be in. So... I have to wait, close to 6 more weeks, to get rescheduled. Why? If the Dr. is away, shouldn't cancellations get priority for rebooking? A few appointments can't be kept "free" for situations like this? Office management needs to take a hard look at this. Especially for those coming in from out of town.
