The range of services will include both urgent and primary care, pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, outpatient surgery, imaging and laboratory services.

The new facility is a joint project with Remedy Medical Properties, a real estate development firm based in Chicago. Scarborough-based Landry/French Construction will be building the new facility.
