What is Health Locator?

What is Health Locator? 

Health Locator is a comprehensive directory and professional network connecting health professionals and personal injury law firms in Canada. It serves as a free, user-friendly search tool that enables hospitals, family doctors, personal injury lawyers, clinic managers, and the public to find and book appointments with health professionals & personal injury lawyers. The platform features detailed profiles, consolidating essential information with advanced search filters for easy navigation.

The network enhances public safety by including links to relevant public registers and professional association directories on each profile. Some associations even adopted Health Locator as their primary member directory. Developed with input from Stuart Moulton, Executive Director of the Ontario Kinesiology Association, government officials, and other professional association directors, Health Locator is designed to streamline access to quality care and foster professional connections.

Why did we create Health Locator? 

Our family experienced three serious motor vehicle accidents in seventeen months. A near-fatal motorcycle accident in 2009 that required two life-saving surgeries, a car accident in 2010 and a car accident in 2011. During our healing and rehabilitation, we found it very challenging to locate the health professionals and the right personal injury lawyer we needed in our local community.   Learn more about our story

Why was it difficult to find care? 

Short answer: Google. Yes, we could search on Google and obtain a random list of clinics and lawyers, but if we wanted to find the exact service, payment method, amenity, or injury we were looking for, Google didn't offer that search functionality. So, we had to review everyone's website in detail and then make multiple telephone calls to get the needed answers.

From a patient’s perspective, we knew there had to be a better way. So, after eight years in the Healthcare system and multiple meetings with Government officials, Regulatory Colleges and Professional Associations across Canada, we created Health Locator.
