For Patients Without a Family Practitioner

KB Access is a *new* medical clinic that offers primary care, as needed & by appointment, to patients in the Kootenay Boundary region who don’t have a family doctor or nurse practitioner.

We’ll be open with limited availability beginning January 13th, 2025. For our opening weeks kindly note that we’re learning together ~ We appreciate your patience & support as we refine this new service to best meet the needs of the region.

About KB Access Clinic

KB Access offers virtual & in-person care. Virtual visits are available to patients across Kootenay Boundary. In-person visits are starting in a Nelson location, with plans to expand to Castlegar & Trail.

Your appointment will be with the family practitioner on shift that day & we’ll focus on your top health concern.

Please note that we are NOT a walk-in clinic.
Patients MUST book an appointment to see a family practitioner.
