Metcalfe is supported by a strong network of regional healthcare institutions.

The Osgoode Village Family Health Organization has received government approval to open a satellite office right here in Metcalfe, integrated with the Rideau St. Lawrence Family Health Team. This is a rare opportunity to build something from the ground up, with the full backing of the community, a dedicated volunteer board, and a regional health system already on side.

We offer you an existing patient base of thousands of unattached residents, allied health colleagues already in place, strong community support, and a board committed to making your transition as smooth and turn-key as possible.
