Their arrival is a significant step in providing more comprehensive care options to Welland residents, helping reduce wait times and improving overall access to essential healthcare services.

“The arrival of Drs. Nautiyal, Nzenwata, and Oboh is a tremendous boost for our community’s healthcare system,” said Dr. Oscar Iwudibia, medical director for Phoenix Medical Clinic. “With the addition of these dedicated doctors, we are poised to serve more families and provide timely, quality care to those who need it. We look forward to making a meaningful impact in the lives of Welland’s residents.”

The City of Welland has been actively working with healthcare providers to address physician shortages in the area. The establishment of Phoenix Medical Clinic and the addition of experienced practitioners is a welcome development that aligns with the City’s ongoing commitment to enhancing local healthcare infrastructure, ensuring accessible, high-quality healthcare for all.

The clinic opened on November 4, and a grand opening event is scheduled for November 7 at 11:30 a.m., where the public can meet the clinic’s team and tour the new facility.
