Family Practice
​
Deer Ridge Family Clinic provides complete health care to patients at every age and stage in life.
We assess and treat everything from mild colds and fevers to chronic health conditions requiring long term management such as high blood pressure and diabetes.
Our doctors are professional, experienced, competent, and down-to-earth.
One of our keys priorities is to build long term relationship with our patients and families so that we can provide personalized care. We aim to involve our patients with their own health goals and set priorities for routine preventative health care screening such as breast cancer, cervical cancer, and colorectal cancer screening.
As health care professionals, we regularly attend medical conferences and programs as part of continued medical education. Our purpose is remain up to date with clinical guidelines and best practices in order to continue to provide exceptional care for our patients.
Elderly Care
​
Our practice is over 40 years old and consequently, 75 of our patients are seniors. We took over from Dr. Zabrodski who had managed the patient's panel for over 35 years. We have managed the same group of patients and more for the following 7 years up until date. Most of the patients are seniors because the residents in our catchment area represent this age group. We look after 5 seniors' homes across the city. We look after over 400 patents of different senior's homes across the city. We go to Canyon Meadows Retirement Home, Revera Scenic Grand, Revera Evergreen, Journey Club Mahogary, all in seniors homes in Calgary and Teen Challenge Alberta in West Priddis.
Women's Care
​
We have a very experienced female doctor that comes once a week and she, among other things, deals with women's health. We do routine general women's checks, breast check and cervical examination according to Alberta Health health protocol. She also deals with basic contraception advice and procedures related to it. She has seen a lot of patients over the years and given very fruitful advice regarding family-planning.
Pediatric Care
​
The practice has been in business for well over 42 years and as a result, we look after generations of families in the area. We have several families that come to our clinic, from grandparents down to their great-grandchildren and we render excellent care to them. We do prompt referrals to the specialist pediatrician for a whole range of issues.
Mental Health Care
​
We had an excellent behavioral therapist that comes from the South Calgary Primary Care Network. She sees a lot of patients primarily for mental health related issues. She also does chronic disease management, obesity, nutrition advice and counselling, chronic pain, social services, medication management and a range of other things. We are very proud to have her in our team.
Workers Compensation Board
​
We get involved in issues relating to the Workers Compensation board. We also have our affiliates that deal with complex cases related to this.
Drivers Medical Examination
​
We do driver's medical examinations for different classes of driver's license. This is an excellent service that we provide for a relatively little cost. We however require you to be a registered patient of the clinic with an up-to-date standing in general health before this happens. We do all the required tests including eye tests within the clinic, vital signs check and all the necessary examinations required for a complete driver's medical examination.
