The other thing is to be careful where you move. My son moved from Toronto to Belleville and waited a year to get a new family doctor. They used walk-in clinics but there is little continuity there long term.

We are fortunate that our hospital gets plenty of private funding from wealthy benefactors and we get access to MRIs and other expensive equipment readily. But many hospitals are not as lucky.

Our family doctor is approaching 70 and so we are aware of the impending need to get another well-connected doctor who can get us referrals to specialists in short order.
