This clinic convinced 21 new doctors to move to London, Ont. — and yes, they're accepting patients

The Thompson Medical Centre in London, Ontario, has successfully lured 21 new doctors to the area since 2025, addressing a longstanding shortage of primary care providers. With two clinics in London and one in St. Thomas, the center now has the capacity to serve around 40,000 patients. This influx of doctors is crucial for improving healthcare access in the region, particularly as demand continues to outpace supply in many areas. The initiative highlights effective strategies to combat the broader issue of doctor shortages in Canada.
