Kingston has a number of medical clinics that provide health services outside of hospitals and doctors' offices. Some clinics are publicly funded and accept patients with Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) cards.

Generally, flu shots are administered at community-based clinics sponsored by the local public health department.

Other examples of publicly funded medical clinics:
Some clinics provide health services that are not funded or insured by the government and charge fees. Patients with private health insurance or workplace health insurance may be able to recoup all or part of the fees charged for uninsured medical services.
