​When you need it most.

Bluenose Health is a subscription-based, nurse practitioner-led clinic providing accessible, inclusive primary care for you and your family. We're located on Young Street in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and offer our subscribers personalized, patient-centred medical care by appointment, 
​in-person and via telephone, with easy telephone booking.

We're here to help you manage your healthcare needs: chronic health issues; mental health challenges; medical administrative items (services like prescription refills and treatment for non-life threatening health concerns); gender affirmation services and support; and minor surgeries. And, we are currently accepting new patients!

How it works

Bluenose Health bridges the gap in primary health care services currently being experienced around our province. While we cannot address urgent or life-threatening concerns, issues that can be addressed include: 

• Cough, flu, or cold symptoms, and minor respiratory issues 
• Prescription refills or renewals 
• Unusual but mild issues such as strains/sprains, headaches, ear aches and sore throat
• Minor infections, including skin and eye irritations
• Gender affirmation services and specialties
• Minor surgeries and joint injections
