FAQ
Is OHIP covered?
The $39 clinic.ca fee covers the NP consult. Antibiotics are covered by ODB for eligible patients, or your private drug plan.
Do I need a urine culture first?
No. For uncomplicated UTI in otherwise healthy adults, symptom-based treatment is clinically appropriate and recommended by Canadian guidelines. Your NP will order a culture if symptoms don't resolve.
What if I have a complicated UTI?
Fever, back or flank pain, chills, or nausea suggest kidney involvement (pyelonephritis). This requires in-person evaluation. Your NP will triage appropriately during intake.
How do I know if it's BV vs UTI?
UTI: burning with urination, urgency, frequency. BV: unusual vaginal discharge with odor, no burning. Your NP will distinguish based on your symptoms and advise accordingly.
