Family medicine group and university family medicine group
A family medicine group (FMG) is a group of family doctors and other health and social services professionals (e.g., nurse, social worker) who work in close collaboration to provide care for the population.
A university family medicine group (U-FMG) is a family medicine group where residents in family medicine, students and interns in various disciplines can receive training and be supervised. Patients can receive care.
Accessibility
People who have a family doctor in the FMG or U-FMG in question can get a consultation and access the services offered.
To be registered with a family doctor, a specialized nurse practitioner in primary care (SNPPC) or a group of family doctors, use the Québec Family Doctor Finder. Go to the page Registering with a family doctor to find out the procedure to follow.
Some FMGs and U-FMGs also offer consultations for people who do not have a family doctor in their institution.

Services offered
A person who goes to an FMG for a consultation can receive medical services from:
- their own family doctor or SNPPC;
- or from another doctor or another SNPPC in the group if their family doctor or their SNPPC is not available. (All the doctors and SNPPC who are members of the FMG have full access to the medical records of registered patients.)
The person may also have access to follow-up services from other healthcare professionals, including:
- A nurse, who can, among other things, assess the patient's physical and mental condition, determine a treatment plan and apply collective prescriptions
- A social worker, who can, among other things, detect and prevent social problems, identify the patient's social needs and the resources available
- A pharmacist, who can, among other things, take charge of and adjust treatment, and make sure there are the necessary links with the patient's community pharmacist
- Another FMG health professional (nutritionist, kinesiologist, physiotherapist, occupational therapist, respiratory therapist or psychologist)
A person who goes to a U-FMG can access the same medical services and the same follow-up services as in an FMG. These services may be provided by residents in family medicine, students or interns. They can make diagnoses, write prescriptions and make recommendations. They are always supervised by doctors or qualified professionals who, as needed, also see the patients.
Aim of FMGs and U-FMGs
The work organization in FMGs and U-FMGs allows patients who have a family doctor or a SNPPC to access health and social services more easily.
This organization allows doctors and other healthcare professionals to:
- Ensure better patient management and follow-up
- Improve quality of care
- Improve access to primary care
U-FMGs also allow residents in family medicine, students and interns in various disciplines to receive appropriate training in a real patient management context.
Access-Network family medicine group (super clinic)
An A/N-FMG is a group of family doctors and other health and social services professionals who work in close collaboration to meet semi-urgent or simple urgent needs. Network FMGs (N-FMGs) and access FMGs (A-FMGs) are also known as super-clinics.
Accessibility
All clienteles can get a consultation in an A/N-FMG:
- People who do not have a family doctor
- People who are registered with a family doctor or a SNPPC in the super clinic in question
- People who are registered with a family doctor or a SNPPC who practices outside the super clinic
A/N-FMGs are open 7 days a week, with some exceptions. They offer all patients the possibility of making an appointment for the next day up until 3 hours before closing time if all the available consultation slots for that day are booked.
Services offered
In addition to offering the same services as FMGs, they offer public specimen collection and imaging services on site or nearby.
The service offer may vary from day to day.
Aim of A/N-FMGs
The services available in A/N-FMGs mean that clients who have a non-priority condition do not have to go to the emergency room. They provide quick access to services for primary care needs.
