The Niagara Health Foundation is humbled by the incredible support and community spirit it has seen during its recent efforts to bring a 3rd MRI machine to Niagara.
The Foundation set out in February to bring a third MRI to Niagara Health to improve wait times and provide greater accuracy, allowing Niagara Health to give patients the best possible diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes.
Extraordinary Caring. Every Person. Every Time.
