Best Times to Visit

Quieter times: Call 506-344-3414 at 8:00 a.m. when the clinic opens to maximize your chance of securing a same-day appointment. Appointments are accepted by phone up to daily capacity, so calling early is strongly recommended.

Busier times: Avoid calling late in the morning if you need a same-day appointment, as daily appointment slots can fill up quickly. For urgent after-hours needs, contact 911 or seek care at a larger regional hospital.

About ER Wait Times

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

Wait times are ERstat’s estimates, built from what hospitals publish, or from our model where a hospital publishes no wait. They are not the hospital’s own figures. Actual waits 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.
