Summit Family Clinic

Overview

Summit Family Medicine is located in St. Albert about a 30-minute drive from the University area in central Edmonton. The clinic is made up of seven family doctors, several supportive staff members, and is part of a primary care network with access to allied health care providers who are available to collaborate for patient care. Each doctor has a slightly different practice that provides residents with well-rounded exposure to a large variety of patients and presentations within the clinic. Residents receive excellent exposure to palliative care, transgender medicine, procedures, injections, women's health, peds, and complex patients by working with different doctors. There are also a few doctors at the clinic who care for palliative patients at a local hospice on a rotating basis.
