ACTIVECARE Medical Group

What ACTIVECARE Medical Group does

ActiveCare Medical Group is a privately held, Ottawa-based operator of walk-in medical clinics and medical aesthetics centers founded in 2002. The group runs three clinic locations across Ottawa (Kanata, Beaverbrook, Carlingwood) under a Family Health Organization (FHO) structure that provides enrolled patients with the Telephone Health Advisory Service (THAS) for after-hours nurse triage and on-call physician access. Core medical services span walk-in and urgent care (extended weekday evenings until 8pm and Saturday hours), pediatric care, gynecology, pediatric sports medicine and concussion management, pediatric allergy and clinical immunology, vaccinations, bloodwork, and on-site infusion, delivered by named specialists including Drs. Ekong, Goulet, Nayar-Kingwell, and Latrous. None of the three locations are currently accepting new family practice patients, although new cosmetic patients are welcome.

In 2024, the group extended its service mix with the launch of ActiveCare Medical Aesthetics at the Beaverbrook location, deploying an installed base of Cynosure equipment including the Elite iQ aesthetic laser, Potenza RF microneedling, PicoSure picosecond laser, and ViaSure shockwave for men's health. Aesthetic offerings include Botox, Juvederm and SkinVive injectables, laser hair removal, tattoo removal, skin revitalization for rosacea, sun spots, and facial/leg veins, and a proprietary CynoGlow protocol combining Potenza and PicoSure. Vivier skincare products are retailed on site, and financing is available through partner Beautifi. Patient access is supported by a new online Patient Portal, Medeo Health booking integration, and OCEAN CognisantMD eRequest referral workflows.

The business operates a dual revenue model. Medical services — including walk-in visits, specialist consultations, pediatric care, and publicly funded vaccinations — are billed through the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) for eligible residents, creating a regulated, fee-schedule-driven revenue stream. Aesthetic and certain vaccination services are private-pay on a unit-pricing or package basis (for example, a six-session laser hair removal package with promotional pricing), with a 15% newsletter discount offered on first cosmetic treatments and a free initial cosmetic consultation that includes clinical skin analysis. Distribution is exclusively regional across Ottawa and Eastern Ontario via the three physical locations, with no disclosed geographic expansion, external funding, parent company, or institutional ownership.
