Did you know there are primary health care services you can access without having to first go to your primary health care provider? A primary health care provider such as a family doctor or nurse practitioner are often the entry to our health care system, but did you know there are dozens of health care services you can access without having to see a family doctor or nurse practitioner first? Did you know they're covered under OHIP using your Ontario Health Card?

This isn’t your typical wellness expo. It’s a health care solutions-focused event designed to connect you with real health care services available in the Muskoka area - whether you have a doctor or not.

Whether you have health concerns, questions or just want to learn more about the amazing diversity of health care services available to you in Gravenhurst and surrounding areas, make sure you come to the Gravenhurst Health Fair! We've got over 2 dozen smiling, welcoming health care service providers who want to talk to you - and admission is FREE!
