###### **Did you know that iamsick.ca has filters that help you find the right healthcare provider?**

[iamsick.ca](http://www.iamsick.ca/)‘s filters help you narrow down your search so you can find the right healthcare provider for you. You can access these filters on the iamsick.ca map.

[![fullscreen](https://healthcare.empower.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/fullscreen-Dec-29-2022-02-43-05-1091-PM.png?width=662&height=319&name=fullscreen-Dec-29-2022-02-43-05-1091-PM.png)](https://healthcare.empower.ca/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/fullscreen-Dec-29-2022-02-43-06-7481-PM.png)

You can filter by:

- Healthcare provider type
- Family doctors accepting new patients
- Healthcare providers open right now
- Healthcare providers offering e-Booking
- Languages spoken by the healthcare provider

**Healthcare Provider Type**

iamsick.ca displays different types of healthcare providers.  These include: emergency rooms, pharmacies, diagnostic labs, urgent care centres, walk-in clinics and family doctors (rostered primary care clinics).

Each type of healthcare provider offers a different service. To view your nearest options, simply click to toggle the healthcare provider type that you’re looking for.  Nearby providers become visible when the provider icon is coloured.

[![filter-provider](https://healthcare.empower.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/filter-provider-Dec-29-2022-02-43-10-3579-PM.png?width=662&height=198&name=filter-provider-Dec-29-2022-02-43-10-3579-PM.png)](https://healthcare.empower.ca/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/filter-provider-Dec-29-2022-02-43-17-3186-PM.png)

**Family doctors accepting new patients**

If you are looking for a family doctor, click on the check box next to “*only show family doctors accepting new patients*“.

If you can’t find one in your area right now, don’t fret! We are always adding new healthcare providers to our website. Check back later for the updated map.

[![filter-newpt](https://healthcare.empower.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/filter-newpt-4.png?width=662&height=199&name=filter-newpt-4.png)](https://healthcare.empower.ca/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/filter-newpt-Dec-29-2022-02-43-17-0550-PM.png)

**Healthcare providers open right now**

It’s hard finding open clinics and pharmacies during off-hours. If you are looking for a healthcare provider in the evening or over the weekend, click on “*only show healthcare providers open right now*” to find care when you need it.

[![filter-open](https://healthcare.empower.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/filter-open-4.png?width=662&height=199&name=filter-open-4.png)](https://healthcare.empower.ca/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/filter-open-Dec-29-2022-02-43-08-1251-PM.png)

**Healthcare providers offering e-Booking**

Did you know that you can book appointments online through iamsick.ca? To find a nearby healthcare provider that accepts online appointment booking, click on “*only show healthcare providers offering e-booking*“.

[![filter-book](https://healthcare.empower.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/filter-book-Dec-29-2022-02-43-09-1568-PM.png?width=662&height=199&name=filter-book-Dec-29-2022-02-43-09-1568-PM.png)](https://healthcare.empower.ca/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/filter-book-Dec-29-2022-02-43-09-8613-PM.png)

**Languages spoken by the healthcare provider **

Find nearby healthcare providers who speak a specific language with a simple click. You can filter by over 70 languages.

[![filter-language](https://healthcare.empower.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/filter-language-4.png?width=662&height=462&name=filter-language-4.png)](https://healthcare.empower.ca/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/filter-language-Dec-29-2022-02-43-15-0164-PM.png)

Give our filters a try, and let us know how we can make your healthcare journey easier!
