After a few months of hard work, the Wembley Medical Clinic is set to open next week, Aug. 4.  

Construction began on the clinic in May after Dr. Angela Luckman and her husband received the development permit from the Town of Wembley.  

Dr. Luckman, originally from Halifax, moved to the area last fall. She worked in the Northwest Territories and Nunavut, with most of her time spent in Hay River. She envisions the clinic being a medical hub for the community. 

The Wembley Firefighters Association has been instrumental in the project. They coordinated the fundraising campaign to get the funds to furnish the clinic and purchase equipment, including running an online auction in June. 

The clinic will be accepting new patients after they open, with priority given to Wembley residents.
