At Polyclinic Family and Specialty Medicine Clinic, our management team prides itself in directing and managing business affairs, legal matters,
administration, human resources, business development, client billing and financial accountability and strategy.

Our Management Groups work closely to bring our team members of physicians and front line staff together to achieve our set goals:

  1. To create an environment where physicians, paramedical staff and multiple diagnostic facilities work in concert in one location to provide
    high quality, prompt service to patients, while reducing costs to the healthcare system.

  2. To help coordinate and reduce appointment and travel times for patients who need specialist referrals.

  3. To provide the comprehensive quality medical care you would find in a hospital setting, without a visit to the hospital.
