Dayspring Medical Centre and Pharmacy has moved to downtown Bolton. We recently asked Dr. Vincent Utsalo, family physician and founder about the business and why they made the decision to change locations.
Tell us about your business.
Dayspring Medical Center and Pharmacy is a medical office focused on family medicine. There are three family physicians and a pharmacy. We also provide some walk-in clinic services for patients who are not part of our practice.
We opened on October 10, 2016 in the Home Depot Plaza at 12788 Highway 50.
To round out our practice we have a pharmacy on site which was founded by Mr. Maged Mancharious, Pharmacist.
We stayed in our other location for the first five years before the opportunity to move to our present location came about and we opened here in 2022.
Tell us about you, why did you decide to open your own business?
I am a foreign trained physician from Nigeria in West Africa. I had the opportunity to complete my recertification as a family physician at the University of Ottawa in 2014.
I worked briefly as part of a group practice in Ajax Ontario as a family physician before I decided to open my own practice in an underserved area in order to best care for the people in the community doing what I am most passionate about.
Why did you decide to locate in downtown Bolton?
Opening in downtown Bolton was an opportunity that presented itself at the right time. Locating to this area not only brought us closer to the community we serve but put us in the heritage district. We are excited to be part of the revitalization efforts happening here.
A lot of our patients love the new location better.
What are your future plans?
Our future plan is to grow our practice. Our goal is to care for the whole individual and families from birth to old age.
Two new doctors that have joined our practice; Dr. Rayan Alexander and Dr. Shamim Khan, we are all accepting new patients.
We also hope to recruit additional doctors and staff to help support the work we do and build capacity to meet the community needs.
What do you love about Bolton/Caledon?
I love the small town rural community charm; with vast acres of green fields, farms and trails. Most residents here still know their neighbors and are longtime residents.
