Waitlist

Please be advised there may be a wait of 3 to 8 weeks upon booking your first appointment. The waitlist depends on the community demand. Monthly groups are offered for common conditions, such as cholesterol and blood sugar, to help manage wait times.

Visits with a private practice dietitian are typically covered by workplace benefits. Private practice dietitians often have short wait times and many offer evening appointments. To find a dietitian visit the Dietitians of Canada website.

Health Connect Canada (Health811) offers access to a registered dietitian free of charge via telephone or website. Ontarians can call 811 and ask to speak to a registered dietitian (in English or French) 7 days a week.
