Group Health Centre

As Ontario's largest and longest established alternatively funded healthcare organization, Group Health Centre serves over 71,000 Sault Ste. Marie and Algoma District residents. Group Health Centre is a progressive, multi-specialty, ambulatory care health organization and is one of Canada's first consumer-sponsored health care facilities built with private funds donated by local union members. The principles of the GHC developed over 50 years ago remain today: group medical practice, consumer sponsorship and the prepayment of medical insurance. Our values express our commitment to excellence, innovative management, community governance, and a committed staff.
