Good news for people looking for a Doctor here in the Foothills.

A new website launched by Alberta Health Services and the Province's Primary Care Networks will help you find a Doctor accepting new patients.

Keith Bradford, Senior Communication Manager for the Calgary-Foothills Primary Care Network says the site shows Doctors right here who are ready to welcome you in.

"So if you're somebody living in Okotoks for example, we do actually have physicians accepting patients in almost all of our rural communities," he says. "But if we don't then our website will show you where the closest one is."

Bradford says province wide 239 doctors are accepting new patients, and there are 1,200 doctors listed on the site.
