Ridgeview Medical Centre is undergoing some exciting changes! Please see below for a quick summary of the great news we have to share so far........
NEW PHYSICIANS:
We are so glad to welcome aboard Dr. Ruth Eeles. Dr. Eeles has a wonderful patient base here in the Bow Valley, and we cannot wait to welcome her patients to our clinic.
We are also excited to welcome Dr. Christie Grundling who is accepting new patients who reside within the Bow Valley (Banff, Canmore, Lake Louise, Harvie Heights). Please fill out our New Patient Form to be added to the waitlist, and we will be in contact with you shortly to schedule a meet & greet appointment.

NEW POLICIES:
Walk-in Policy:
Walk-in patients are served on a first - come - first - serve basis. If you require immediate medical attention, please seek care at Canmore General Hospital or Banff Mineral Springs Hospital.
Please DO NOT show up before the check-in time starts - you will not be placed in line until the start time. Our hallway is shared with other great businesses in town, and we do not want to clog up their entryways.
Upon arrival for Walk-in Clinic, please take a number and have a seat. If you have been to our clinic before, one of our team members will call out your number shortly. If you have not been to our clinic before, please grab a New Patient Form and fill it out while you wait.
Once your number has been called, we will book you in to see the doctor between the walk-in hours posted for the day. Please note that there is only one doctor working per walk-in shift, therefore the appointments fill quickly.
Once your appointment is made, you are welcome to leave the clinic until your allotted appointment time.
Same-Day Visit Policy:
Now that we have opened our Walk-in Clinic, we have stopped offering same-day appointments on the days that we are running the Walk-in Clinic.
If you require a same-day appointment, please come to the Walk-in Clinic, if offered, or if there is no Walk-in Clinic that day, you will have to call the clinic at 9am that same day to see if there are any same-day appointments available.
Please note that all same-day appointments are open for patients with or without a family doctor at our clinic.
Masking Policy:
As per Alberta Health Services policies, we are lifting our mandatory masking requirement EFFECTIVE March 24, 2023.
A mask is only required in the following situations:
We thank all of our Patients, Physicians, Staff and Community for following the masking regulations for the last 3 years. We appreciate your diligence in keeping us and our community safe.
Our clinic is excited to be moving to a new and improved Electronic Medical Record system (EMR) on March 1, 2023. Our new system will provide us with more streamlined clinical services, as well as more functional online booking and communication opportunities for our patients.
With every change comes a learning curve, and we thank you for your patience while we learn our new system and adapt to our new processes.
Please note that our online patient portal is no longer accessible. We look forward to introducing clinic patients to our new online booking and communication system, and we will post communication when the new portal is live.
