Let’s find out more about: Winterberry’s new second location!

This month we’re checking in with Krysta, our Operations Manager to find out about Winterberry’s second location.

Krysta, I hear there is a new Winterberry Family Medical office. Where is it?

It is located at 35 Upper Centennial Parkway on the second floor. Just 5 minutes from our current location.

That’s great! Why was an additional office added?

In Ontario, 2.3 million people don’t have a family doctor, including over 55,000 in Hamilton. Both numbers are expected to double by 2026, according to the Ontario College of Family Physicians.  At Winterberry we are able to put excellent providers in front of patients to help with this problem.  This allows us to not only grow as a medical office, but also to perform high quality clinical research; which results in life changing/saving treatments.

Everyone at Winterberry must be very excited. Will the staff work at both offices or just one? 

Many staff will have their home base at one office, but there may be times when they work at both offices.

When do you expect the new office to open?

We are hoping for the beginning of 2025!!

When will patients be able to start booking appointments at the new office?

As early as January!

Does having a second office mean that more staff members were added?

Yes, over the last couple months we have added 10 new staff members.  We are looking forward to the continued growth.

Will there be a Grand Opening?

Yes – we will have a Grand Opening day where patients can come see our new space and enjoy some treats.

Treats are nice!, In the meantime, if patients have questions about the new office, who can they contact?

Patients are free to contact either myself or Rachel in HR by calling our Winterberry office.
