Please reference the campus map provided in the  flyer available here [PDF] or by clicking on the image at the left. Also in the flyer is a list of services available at the new site.

Plans are for each clinical area to pack, move and open within three days. All clinics are expected to be moved and fully operational again by mid-January. A sample of informational cards sent to patients to inform them of the move can be found  here [PDF].
