Minor emergency
Minor emergency
At Clinique Lambert & Lévesque, our nurse practitioners (NPs) are trained to assess, diagnose and treat many types of minor emergencies without having to go through the hospital emergency room. Whether you have a urinary tract infection, sprain, cut, skin reaction, respiratory infection, or acute pain, our team will see you quickly and with compassion.
We take a humane and professional approach to quickly relieve your symptoms while ensuring safe and personalized follow-up care. Our NPAs can prescribe medication, request tests or imaging exams as needed, and refer you to a specialist if the situation warrants it. Your health, without the long wait times, is our priority.
Each nurse practitioner (NP) at our clinic has their own clinical expertise, allowing us to offer comprehensive care to the whole family, from infants to seniors. Some specialise in women's health, others in mental health, family care or aesthetic medicine, allowing us to tailor each consultation to your specific needs.
Thanks to this diversity of skills, we can care for patients from 0 to 100 years of age, whether for a minor emergency, health monitoring, medical assessment or wellness treatments. Our team works collaboratively to ensure comprehensive, compassionate and professional care for every member of your family.
Consultations for minor emergencies last an average of 20 to 30 minutes and are conducted entirely by qualified healthcare professionals.
