Health clinics
Doctors and nurses clinics for urgent and non-urgent medical care as well as dental care are located at the social and health centres in our region. In the larger health centres, you will also find social and senior services, rehabilitation activities and maternity clinics.
Several social and health centres also operate services of the Hospital District of Helsinki and Uusimaa, or HUS, such as laboratory and imaging services.
At health clinics, we provide primary healthcare services. The health clinic is your primary place of treatment. From there you can be referred to specialised healthcare for further examination and treatment, when necessary.
At the doctors and nurses clinic we examine, assess and treat health issues and illnesses by mutual consent with you. At the clinic, we also monitor chronic diseases (e.g. diabetes and sleep apnea) according to your individual treatment plan, as well as provide preventive and health-promoting advice and lifestyle guidance.
Some of the doctors and nurses appointments can, if you wish, be taken care of through virtual clinics, if the matter is suitable for remote care.
When calling the appointment and counselling phone number, you will be assisted by a health care professional who will refer you forward. We also provide care instructions and information about health services.
