About us
The Edmonton North Primary Care Network (PCN) is made up of doctors and healthcare professionals working together to improve community health. Opened in 2007, Edmonton North PCN is one of 40 Primary Care Networks operating across the province.
We have two locations:
Edmonton Community Health Hub North
13211 Fort Road, Edmonton AB
Rundle Health Centre
3427 – 118 Ave, Edmonton AB
Improving community health
Each PCN is shaped by the family doctors who practice in the area and Alberta Health Services (AHS), ensuring they best serve patient needs. The Government of Alberta provides the funding for PCN services. All PCN services are free to patients.
- We have cared for thousands of patients since opening in 2007, achieving high satisfaction rates among patients.
- Our member doctors report high satisfaction with our programs and services, helping them focus on patient care and increasing their ability to accept new patients.
- We are constantly seeking improved links to specialists and enhanced processes to reduce waiting times.
The purpose of the Edmonton North PCN is to work together with family doctors and their patients to build a healthier community. Everything we do, all of our programs and services available to our member doctors and patients are guided by that purpose.
