Boyle Mccauley Health Centre

Best Times to Visit

Quieter times: As a primary care and community health centre, this facility operates by appointment for many services. Call ahead to confirm clinic times and availability to reduce wait times and ensure the service you need is offered that day.

Busier times: Walk-in availability may be limited during peak morning hours when demand for primary care and harm reduction services is highest. Calling ahead to book is strongly recommended. For after-hours emergencies, go directly to the nearest hospital emergency department.

Tips Before You Go

• This is a community health centre, not a hospital — do not come here for emergencies, chest pain, stroke symptoms, or serious injuries. Go to Royal Alexandra Hospital (10240 Kingsway Ave NW) instead.
• Call ahead at 780-422-7333 to confirm appointment availability, clinic hours, and which services are offered on a given day.
• Dental clinic fees are geared to income — bring documentation of your income or benefits status to discuss fee reductions.
• If you need the Supervised Consumption Services or Streetworks harm reduction program, no appointment is typically required — staff are trained and non-judgmental.
• Off-site programs like Pathways to Housing, Pregnancy Pathways, and Kindred House may require separate referrals or contacts — ask the main clinic for guidance.

What to Bring

• Alberta Health Care (AHCIP) card or any health coverage documentation
• Government-issued photo ID if available
• List of current medications and dosages
• Income documentation if applying for dental fee reductions

About ER Wait Times

Emergency departments use triage. Patients with more serious conditions are seen first, regardless of arrival time.

Wait times are estimates based on Alberta health data. Actual wait times may vary.

This hospital does not publish a live wait, so the figure above comes from our model rather than from its own feed. We publish how that model performs where it can be checked, at the hospitals that do publish. See the accuracy scorecard, or how we work the number out.

If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 immediately.
