Estevan Medical Group is please to announce a new doctor in the clinic.  

Doctor Charles Omosigho will be joining the Estevan Medical Group just across the hall from his current Shalom Medical Clinic.  With a few doctors having left recently, an addition to the team means a weight lifted off the currently practicing doctors.

Dr. Omosigho has been practicing in the Shalom Medical Clinic for just over 5 years and is pleased with the announcement, "Of course there are many benefits of sharing a practice, there are things like the overhead costs, as well as for example, if I am away, my patients can see my colleagues. It makes things a lot easier."

Doctor Omosigho is a family doctor that sees a variety of patients.  The variety changes day to day and includes: Long term care - care for the elderly, pregnant women, and children.

"I do a lot of care for the elderly, including care for those in the nursing homes," says Omosigho, "Because we are in Rural Saskatchewan, we also have to cover the emergency room here, which a lot of family physicians who are not rural, do not do so that adds a mixture of complexity."

The official merge will take place on December 1, 2016.
