Making an appointment at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital is an easy and straight forward process.

Please note, at this time, visiting the QEH to make appointments is discouraged. We ask our out-patients to use the following options to make appointments:

  • For new out-patients, you are encouraged to register for your appointment using our form below;
  • For existing out-patients, please call the Medical Records department at 436-6450 extensions 6339 or 6120 to make an appointment.

Request An Appointment

If you have been referred to one of our Out-Patient Clinics, use our form to request an appointment. Once your information has been submitted, you will be contacted by our Medical Records Department with details on your scheduled date and time for your appointment, subject to availability

Visiting The Clinics

On arriving for your appointment, please pull a number and take a seat in the waiting area. Once your number is called the Appointments Clerk will process your admission to the out-patients clinic to which you have been referred. This will include obtaining your demographic information such as your full name, date of birth (DOB), age, home address and contact information; the name of your private physician; and the name, relationship status and contact information of your next of kin.

Patients are asked to present to their respective clinics as scheduled, and to arrive at the QEH no earlier than 30 minutes before their scheduled appointment time.

Sharing medication information is vital

Medication reconciliation is a safe practice where we as healthcare providers work with patients, their families and/or care providers to ensure accurate and complete medication information is communicated consistently at all stages of care.

Here is how you can work with your care team by being ready to share your medication history.

  1. Remember to:
    • Keep a list of your medications.
    • Keep the list with you.
    • Keep the list up to date.
  2. Bring your list of medications that you are taking with you when you are coming to the Accident and Emergency Department or Out-Patient Clinics.
  3. Be sure you and your doctor know of any prescription medication, over the counter drugs or herbal remedies you are taking at home.
