Leeds & Grenville Community Family Health Team

What Leeds & Grenville Community Family Health Team does

Leeds & Grenville Community Family Health Team (LGCFHT) is a multi-site, publicly funded primary healthcare organization operating two clinic locations in Brockville (2235 Parkedale Ave, headquarters) and Gananoque (338 Herbert St), Ontario, serving residents of the Leeds and Grenville region. It is designated as a Family Health Team under the Ontario Ministry of Health and delivers integrated interprofessional care through a team that includes physicians (Dr. Hodgson, Dr. Jordan, Dr. Murtaza, Dr. Spohn, Dr. Trail, Dr. Raleigh), nurse practitioners (N.P. Streekstra, N.P. McKeen, N.P. Hammond, N.P. McGaw, N.P. Steele, N.P. Campbell), a physician assistant (P.A. Forrest), a psychiatrist (Dr. Chawla), a clinical pharmacist, a dietitian, a diabetes educator, a social worker, and registered nurses. Patients enroll through the provincial Health Care Connect program, with online appointment booking available through CognisantMD for specific named providers.

The service portfolio extends beyond comprehensive primary care into specialized programs: Aging Well (home visits for seniors with multiple chronic conditions), Community Diabetes Education (pre-diabetes, type 1, type 2, gestational), Lung Health/COPD Screening by Certified Respiratory Educators, Mental Health (single-session counseling with social worker or psychiatrist), Pharmacist medication therapy management, Registered Dietitian services, Smoking Reduction with free nicotine replacement therapy, and a Women's Wellness cervical screening program. Clinical records run on the TELUS Practice Solutions EMR platform, and the Brockville site operates after-hours clinics Monday-Thursday evenings and Saturday mornings. The organization is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors chaired by Vanessa Patterson, with Jenny Lane (MSc, NP-PHC, CHE) serving as Executive Director.

LGCFHT's revenue model rests on three streams: Ontario Ministry of Health base funding as a designated Family Health Team, OHIP billing by physicians for insured services, and patient-pay fees for uninsured services and medical forms ($20 sick note up to $260 insurance medical examination). The organization publishes a Strategic Plan 2021-2024, an annual report, a Health Equity Charter, and operates a Patient Advisory Committee and SurveyMonkey-based satisfaction surveys, with social media presence on Facebook and Instagram and a website newsletter.

Regional players

• Cleveland Clinic Canada: Multi-disciplinary outpatient primary care provider in Toronto offering physician, dietitian, and mental health services under one roof; comparable service breadth but premium urban market.
• Brockville General Hospital: The regional hospital serving Leeds & Grenville; it partners with LGCFHT on post-discharge care and shares catchment geography, making it the most relevant acute-care counterpart for integrated care pathways.

Emerging players

• Oak Street Health (CVS Health): US value-based primary care provider focused on seniors with integrated clinical teams — a thematic comparable for LGCFHT's Aging Well and chronic-disease programs, though operating under a different payer model.
• Copeman Healthcare Canada: Premium multi-disciplinary primary care clinic with physicians, NPs, dietitians, and mental health professionals — comparable integrated care model, though privately funded rather than publicly insured.

Broad incumbents

• Well Health Technologies: Canadian digital health platform operating a growing network of primary care clinics; comparable in multi-disciplinary primary care delivery but at much larger scale and with private capital backing.
• Appletree Medical Group: Canada's largest multi-site primary care and walk-in clinic chain with a similar physician + allied-health model; serves as the private-sector incumbent benchmark against publicly-funded FHTs like LGCFHT.
• TELUS Health: Provides the TELUS Practice Solutions EMR used by LGCFHT and increasingly offers virtual primary care and clinic services; an adjacent incumbent shaping the technology stack and competitive landscape.

Direct peers

• Hamilton Family Health Team: Large Ontario Family Health Team operating multiple sites under the same Ministry of Health designation, delivering team-based primary care with allied health professionals — directly comparable governance and funding model.
• South East Toronto Family Health Team: Another Ontario-designated Family Health Team with multiple physicians, NPs, and allied health staff delivering team-based primary care under identical Ministry funding structure.

Others

• Canadian Mental Health Association – Champlain East: Regional mental health services provider overlapping with LGCFHT's mental health program; relevant ecosystem partner and partial substitute for the social worker/psychiatry offering.
