The South Bruce Grey Health Centre announced that the Walkerton hospital opened a new procedure room late last month.
The room is for patients requiring minor surgeries such as skin cancer treatment, that don’t need to be performed in an operating room.
The Health Centre partnered with General Surgeon, Dr. John Stirrat, to renovate and open the procedure room in his office.
In the first week of using the new space, Dr. Stirrat saw over 40 patients.
Health Centre President and CEO Michael Barrett says Dr. Stirrat has been a wonderful addition to the team and is always working closely with the hospital to provide high quality care.
