Lakeside Vision Centre

Lakeside Vision Centre

SCOPE

Meet the needs of an expanding optometrist practice within a defined footprint of a pre-existing medial centre. New office has four exam rooms, retail area, lab, pre-test area, and staff room.

ISSUE

The former location was not large enough to provide services to their existing patients and did not provide physical room for growth of the practice. The issue of the restricted space heightened during COVID and required the practice to look for space that would meet their needs.

ASSOCIATED OPPORTUNITY

Optometrist practice has street level, corner unit in downtown Port Colborne, encouraging new patients and pedestrian traffic for retail space

Inclusion of optometrist office in new expanded medical centre with established anchoring pharmacy, multiple family physicians, and Life Labs offices
