The new $2.1-million Provincial Renal Clinic was officially opened on Thursday, giving Islanders with chronic kidney disease better access to care.
The number of islanders living with kidney disease is growing rapidly, and this new, spacious clinic will allow caregivers to see and care for more patients. There are more than 1,300 Islanders who rely on life-sustaining and life-saving renal care coordinated through the provincial clinic.
The new 6,000 square-foot clinic features eight patient care/exam rooms, as compared to the four rooms in the clinic that had been operating until now.
