People living in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside will be able to access a variety of health services all under one roof now that a first-of-its kind facility has officially opened its doors.
The Vancouver Urban Health Centre is located at 219 Main Street and is open Monday to Friday from 9 a-m to 5 p-m.
Dr. Brian Conway, the centre's medical director, says the goal is to build on the community pop-up clinics his team has offered on the Downtown Eastside for years.
Though it officially opened yesterday, Conway says a soft launch of the centre started six weeks ago and, since then, between 25 and 30 people have visited daily. (CTV Vancouver)
