TELUS Health Care Centres

Tired of paying monthly dues but no one is available to even make an appointment. No one returns calls simply to schedule an appointment. Stick with your GP .

Great until you really need them While Copeman's care is great, I strongly urge you to avoid them at all cost. I ended up at Copeman because of the struggle to find a family doctor. I have some chronic health problems and really needed the help. While at Copeman I was able to see doctors on a regular basis, and get the referrals I needed. I got in to see specialists much faster than I would have normally. My care being coordinated and kept on track made a big difference, and I did improve by leaps and bounds. When Covid hit my boyfriend was laid off. I’m on disability assistance and relied on my boyfriend’s income to pay the monthly fee for my care. I was hardly able to pay for it before, but it became impossible. They had no form of assistance for Covid, low income, disability, or otherwise. I lost all care. My now former doctor refused a refill request at the time I was kicked out. I have been struggling to find a new family doctor so I wasn’t able to get a refill in time and went without for several days. That resulted in some major health repercussions I'm still dealing with. I have no idea what happened to an external sleep study I was referred to through Copeman that was supposed to happen months ago. I waited multiple years on the waitlist. Copeman’s care is great, and I'd absolutely recommend it - but only if you’re sure nothing will ever affect your income, such as job or insurance loss, a recession, or in the current case: a pandemic. At that point I hope you only ever had to use them for general check ups and are perfectly healthy. I do miss my Nurse Practitioner though, and wish I could still see her.
