How Princess Margaret Appointments and Referrals Work
For a new Princess Margaret cancer referral, UHN states that the referral must be completed by a physician. The referral route then depends on the department, cancer type or clinic involved.
Your physician starts the referral
Your doctor submits the required referral information to the appropriate Princess Margaret program. Different cancer programs may use different forms and referral destinations.
The correct clinic receives and reviews it
The receiving program reviews the referral information. If the referring physician is unsure where it should go, UHN lists the New Patient Referral Centre at 416-946-4575 for professional referral guidance.
Wait for confirmed appointment information
After the referral is assessed and an appointment is arranged, the patient or referring office receives the relevant appointment information. Do not travel to Princess Margaret solely because a referral was sent.
Confirm the clinic and preparation instructions
Before leaving home, check the date, time, clinic, floor and any preparation instructions. Testing and treatment areas have different requirements, so clinic-specific instructions take priority over general hospital guidance.
What to Bring to Your First Princess Margaret Appointment
UHN directs first-time patients to go directly to their assigned clinic to register. Bring your OHIP card if you have one. If you do not have an OHIP card, UHN advises bringing another government-issued photo ID.
Useful first-visit checklist
- Your OHIP card or applicable government-issued identification.
- Your appointment information and assigned clinic location.
- A current list of prescription and non-prescription medications, vitamins and supplements.
- Medical information or imaging that your referring physician specifically told you to bring.
- Any medications or medical equipment you may need during the visit.
- A written list of questions for your care team.
Allow enough time
First appointments may involve registration, consultation, testing or additional steps. Some Princess Margaret clinics specifically tell patients to expect longer visits.
Follow the instructions from your own clinic if they give you a required arrival time, fasting rule, test preparation or different document list.
myUHN Patient Portal
myUHN is UHN’s patient portal. Princess Margaret patients can use it to see available UHN appointments, results, reports and clinic notes, update certain personal details and access other digital services offered by UHN.
Appointments
View available UHN appointment information and reminders. If an appointment is missing or needs to be changed, contact your healthcare provider or clinic.
Results and reports
Available test results, pathology and imaging reports, clinic notes and other records can appear in the portal when ready.
Portal support
Use myUHN support for registration codes, sign-in, two-step verification and technical issues rather than medical or scheduling questions.
Princess Margaret Does Not Have an Emergency Department
Do not go to Princess Margaret expecting an Emergency Department. UHN states that Princess Margaret Cancer Centre does not have one. For an emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest Emergency Department.
UHN advises Princess Margaret patients who need emergency care to tell Emergency Department staff that their cancer is being treated at Princess Margaret. Toronto General Hospital is another UHN hospital nearby with an Emergency Department.
For non-emergency treatment-related concerns after clinic hours, UHN currently lists CareChart at 1-877-681-3057, which connects Princess Margaret patients with an oncology nurse when clinics are closed.

Princess Margaret does not have its own UHN-operated parking lot. UHN directs visitors to nearby public parking, including lots along Murray Street, and also notes discounted UHN parking options for eligible frequent Princess Margaret patients, families and visitors at the 201 Elizabeth Street lot behind Toronto General.

Wheelchair access
UHN provides accessibility information for its hospital sites, including accessible entrances and transportation guidance. Wheelchairs are available at designated hospital entrances.
Ask before travelling
If you need a particular accessibility accommodation, communication support or mobility assistance, contact your clinic or UHN before the appointment so you know where to arrive.
Princess Margaret Visitor Information
UHN uses flexible visiting hours, but individual units can change or restrict visiting when necessary for patient care, privacy or infection prevention. Quiet hours are from 10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.
For Princess Margaret inpatient units, UHN says families planning a visit from a child age 9 or younger must first meet with the unit manager to review infection-prevention risks. More general UHN rules also require younger children to be properly supervised.
