New Medical Commercial Space in Orillia

Orillia, ON (August 21, 2012). Leacock Care Centre along with Leacock Retirement Lodge in Orillia unveiled details about a 2000 square foot commercial medical space that they have reserved for up to 2 local doctors. Several Doctors and members of the medical community attended a dinner event at 16 Front Street on August 9, 2012 and those in attendance previewed the details about this opportunity.

The Medical Commercial Space will be located in the Leacock Care Centre at 25 Museum Drive in Orillia. The space will occupy vacant area that currently exists in the Long Term Care building with its own entrance for use as a community practice. We have experience in two other of the Jarlette Lodges with physician offices and it has proven to be successful for both the occupying physicians and the lodge.

Construction is well under way at the neighbouring Leacock Retirement Lodge Inc. and a tunnel connecting the two buildings is already in place. This tunnel will provide ease of access to Residents wanting to visits friends or family in the Nursing Home and for those accessing the services of the medical facility.

Jackie Dusome, Director of the Retirement Division at Jarlette Health Services says she is looking to find physicians who may be interested in establishing their offices in this location and she would be happy to meet with interested parties.
