HISTORY

The "Milk River Clinic", is located adjacent to the hospital which itself is on the East edge of the town, on Central Avenue (Hwy 501). Office space is leased from Alberta Health Services. Appointments may be arranged by phoning: 403 647-3599

This summary was prepared by Pat Howitt when she was managing the office at the clinic. Note that the clinic itself, is independent of the hospital and other facilities, and is a private doctor owned enterprise, but the community does depend on it's continuance to provide the necessary momentum which encourages the province to provide still further services. The local municipalities have provided additional support to help the stability of services at this location.
