André Fortin seeking solutions to dentist office closure in Shawville

The Clareo dental clinic in Shawville announced earlier this month that they would be shutting their doors on Thursday September 29. In an interview, outgoing Pontiac MNA André Fortin said that while dentistry isn’t a provincial file, he met with the staff at the clinic and is seeking a solution to the situation.

Fortin said that he had spoken with a potential investor, and while there were still some “hoops to jump through”, he felt that things were “headed in the right direction”.

In their message to clients, the Clareo Clinic indicated that dentist Mohamed-Aban Al-Khatib will be practicing in Aylmer and clients would have their files transferred to that location.

The only other clinic in the MRC Pontiac is in Campbell’s Bay, at 16 rue Second.
