Healthy Families, Healthy Community
Welcome
The City of Kawartha Lakes Family Health Team (CKL FHT) is made up of local family doctors working together with our team’s nurse practitioners, family health nurses, dietitians, pharmacist, psychologist, social workers, occupational therapist and respiratory therapist.
The members of our team work with your family doctor to provide you with complete health care. This way, patients receive different kinds of expert care and can see a health professional sooner. We also partner with other, local health organizations and offer a variety of health programs designed to meet the specific needs of patients in our community.
Funded by the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care, our team is making a difference in the health and well-being of the people of our community. Is your doctor a part of the City of Kawartha Lakes Family Health Team? Click Here

Land Acknowledgement
We would like to acknowledge, on behalf of the City of Kawartha Lakes Family Health Team, in the spirit of reconciliation, the first peoples who have stewarded the land we are on today since time immemorial. The FHT is situated on the traditional territories of Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabe nations. We are within Treaty 20 and the Williams Treaties which has since had a formal apology for the injustices it created. We are all treaty people and as such we all have the
rights and responsibilities to work in mutual cooperation for whole body health and wellbeing, while creating a healthier mother earth.
