With a rapidly changing and fragmented healthcare system, delivering integrated patient-centred care is more important than ever. Centres of Excellence endeavour to improve population’s health outcomes by diagnosing health conditions earlier, faster and more accurately. These centres will bring diagnostic solutions closer to home, helping the public healthcare system serve the community more efficiently with improved outcomes.  

Canon Medical leverages over 100 years in healthcare innovations with a full range of diagnostic medical imaging solutions including; CT, MRI, Molecular Imaging, Angiography, X-Ray, Ultrasound, and Healthcare Informatics. This is coupled with deep learning technologies that deliver uncompromised quality, insight, and value across the entire care pathway. HSHG, with its unique network of established Centre of Excellence facilities for patient care across cities in England, is bringing this expertise to Canada. “HSHG Canada firmly believes that an industrial approach to healthcare is no longer fit for purpose. Healthcare needs to transform from a sick care system that continues to carry a heavy cost burden on the society and the public health system to a system that is proactively engaged in keeping people healthy over the course of their lifetime” states Sanjeev Kumar, President, Harley Street Group. Together, we are focused to make a difference in Ontario’s healthcare by increasing the capacity in the diagnostic space by efficiently investing in new facilities that provide the latest state-of-the-art medical imaging solutions.  

The development of these centres will collaborate closely with the existing public healthcare systems in Ontario to help reduce pressure on acute hospital sites. Alliances are created with the local hospitals to ensure key demands of the community are met and efficiencies between the clinics and the healthcare system are augmented. 

“This embodies Canon Medical’s Made for Life philosophy as it addresses the challenges of clinical practice with the outcome of improved patient care” states Jens Dettmann, President, Canon Medical Systems Canada.   

The partnership plans to launch 5 centres in Ontario within the next 2 years. The first of its kind will be located at 1785 Alta Vista Drive in Ottawa, with the plan to have another centre in Brampton, Ontario and the Greater Toronto Area by early next year. Canon and HSHG are seeking to have the first centre open to the public before the end of December 2022.
