“Focused recruitment efforts to restore sustainable physician services have been ongoing,” says

President and CEO, Suann Laurent. “I am very pleased that we will have the stability of three

physicians in Preeceville.”

The Primary Health Care Clinic remains fully operational with Dr. M. Shahrestani, Nurse

Practitioner Dawn Kennedy, and locum physicians continuing to see clients in Preeceville.

Appointments can be made by phoning the Clinic at 306-547-3098.

The Sunrise Health Region continues to work with local providers, physicians, the Ministry of

Health and the community to work on improving health care services in Preeceville.

“Progress takes time and teamwork. I wish to thank the Preeceville Town Council and the

people of Preeceville and area who support our efforts and who create a welcoming

environment for new members of the health care team,” adds Laurent. “I also want to

acknowledge the Sunrise Health Region board and management and the health care providers in

Preeceville for their dedication to sustaining quality health services in Preeceville.”
