Niverville Welcomes New Physician in the Spring of 2022
March 7, 2022
The Town of Niverville and the Board of Niverville Health Care Services Inc., are pleased to welcome a new physician to Open Health Niverville this spring. Dr. Lila Boroditsky will be starting a full-time practice in Niverville on June 1, 2022.
Dr. Boroditsky provides general family medicine for all ages from pediatric to geriatric individuals. She has extensive family medicine background having practiced in Winnipeg for over 10 years.
Dr. Boroditsky will be accepting new patients to begin her practice at Open Health Niverville. A priority period starting with Niverville residents (living within postal codes R0A 1E0, R0A 0A1, R0A 0A2) will open on March 7th, 2022, and run for a duration of one-month.
An update will be posted on April 8th, 2022, on the Open Health Niverville Facebook page and website regarding remaining capacity (if any) and eligibility requirements for the next intake.
Due to the great need for family practitioners in our region, we anticipate a large number of requests to come into the clinic. To alleviate strain on our phone lines, we have created an email address (noted below) for new patient registrations only. Any calls regarding registering with Open Health Niverville will be directed to the email.
If you are interested in registering and meet the above noted criteria, please email register@openhealthniv.com and include the following:
- full legal names of all household members you wish to register
- daytime phone number
- civic address and mailing address including postal code
- please do not include medical information in your email
The registration email will allow our staff to contact you and schedule a “Meet and Greet” appointment. These appointments establish whether the provider-patient relationship is mutually agreeable. Please note, if you already have a registered provider at Open Health, there will be no switching permitted*. If you have a provider within the surrounding rural communities (excluding Winnipeg), we will also be unable to fulfill your request for registration at the clinic.
If you live outside of the Niverville area, please check the Open Health Niverville website and Facebook page in the coming weeks for updates on possible open registration spaces. We will not be compiling a waitlist at this time.
*Due to Dr. Mairi having to reduce her panel size, previously registered patients who have not been seen by Dr. Mairi since November 2020, would be eligible to submit an email for registration with Dr. Boroditsky (excluding Winnipeg residents or those outside of the catchment area).
This is an exciting announcement for the community as we continue to work on expanding health services in our growing community. Welcome to the team, Dr. Boroditsky!
