Please note that due to the success of the collaborative team clinic (located on the 2nd floor of Terrace on the Square, in Churchill Square), the clinic is temporarily not accepting new patients at this time. We aim to take new patients again early in the new year. In the meantime, we will continue to add people to the waitlist and call you as space becomes available. Individuals experiencing an emergency should go to the nearest emergency room. In addition, people may call 811 for medical assistance or speak to their pharmacist about a medication refills, if needed.

The clinic’s current hours of operation are Monday to Thursday, 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. and Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. For patients who are already registered and are looking to make an appointment, please leave your name and phone number by calling 709-752-4747 and the staff at clinic will return your phone call as soon as possible.
