On average, your appointment will be about two weeks after we are contacted by your physician.

Before your first visit:

• You can call our counsellors or nurses for support and information       
• Ask a family member or friend to come with you to your appointment       
• Write down the questions you want to ask our staff. Or you can ask the person coming with you to your first appointment to help you remember your questions       
• Visit our Cancer Information Centre or check out other sources of information about cancer
• Browse our Frequently Asked Questions page for information on centre location, transportation, parking, etc.
• Review the Health Assessment Form  that you will be asked to complete when you arrive for your first appointment. If you wish, you may print the Health Assessment Form and complete it at your leisure before you come to the cancer centre. Please bring the completed form with you to the main Reception Desk at which time you will be handed the New Patient Brochure.
