Arriving at the clinic
Please allow time for registration before your appointment. Reception will confirm your health card and contact details. If you are running late, call 905 625 5600 so that we can let the dermatologist know. Arriving significantly late may mean your appointment has to be rebooked.
Bring your valid Ontario health card, a list of your medications and any images or products related to the problem you were referred for. Full details are on the first visit page.
Hours
The clinic is open Monday to Friday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. The telephone is answered during clinic hours. Outside those hours you may leave a message and we will return your call on the next clinic day. The clinic is closed on statutory holidays.
Phototherapy sessions are scheduled during clinic hours and are booked in advance. The clinic has one phototherapy unit, so session times are limited.
Our two locations
1065 Canadian Place, Unit 206, Mississauga, Ontario L4W 0C2. The main clinic. Medical dermatology assessment, skin surgery, phototherapy and clinical research are based here.
1435 Hurontario Street, Mississauga, Ontario L5G 3H5. The second DermCare location, reached on the same telephone number.
Both sites take appointments through the same line, 905 625 5600, and referrals for either site are faxed to 905 625 5650. If you are unsure which site your appointment is at, telephone before you travel rather than guessing.
Accessibility
If you need assistance entering the building or the clinic, call ahead on 905 625 5600 and a staff member will meet you. Service animals are welcome. See your rights for how to request an accommodation.
For referring offices
Referrals are sent by fax to 905 625 5650. Do not send patients to the clinic with a referral in hand: the referral must be reviewed and the patient booked by telephone first. See for referring physicians.
Not an emergency service
DermCare is an outpatient clinic and does not see walk in or emergency patients. A rapidly spreading rash with fever, widespread blistering, or swelling of the face or mouth needs the emergency department or 911.
