In 2023, the number of doctor's consultations per capita in Canada was 6.62. The forecast for the upcoming years shows a very modest increase, reaching 6.66 consultations per capita by 2028. The year-on-year variation from 2024 to 2028 is minimal, indicating less than a 0.1% increase annually. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period also reflects this slight upward trend.

Future trends to watch for:

Changes in healthcare policy that could influence the demand for doctor's consultations.
Technological advancements in telemedicine and their potential impact on the frequency of in-person consultations.
Demographic changes, particularly the aging population, which might drive an increased need for medical consultations.
