Growing with Purpose at Winterberry

At Winterberry, our mission is simple: Helping you live your best life. As our clinic continues to grow and evolve, we believe it’s important to keep our patients and community informed about what we’ve been building, which is why we’re sharing this update.

While our services have expanded, our focus remains steady — providing thoughtful, high-quality care you can rely on. We are proud of our progress and grateful for the trust you place in us. Here are some of the ways Winterberry has grown:

• Added a Full Physiotherapy Clinic
We launched our physiotherapy clinic to support both recovery and prevention. Patients come to us not only after injury or surgery, but also to maintain mobility and address strain before it becomes a larger concern. Offering physiotherapy within Winterberry makes it easier to receive coordinated care in one place.

• Expanded Our Team
We have welcomed additional healthcare providers, research staff, and administrative professionals. Each team member — whether working directly with patients or supporting care behind the scenes — plays an important role in delivering the respectful and attentive service Winterberry is known for.

• Opened a Second Location
We opened a new clinic on Upper Centennial Parkway. This expansion allows us to offer more Hamilton residents access to a family doctor and strengthens our ability to serve the community.

• Increased Research Opportunities
We have expanded research opportunities at Winterberry, allowing more individuals to participate in carefully designed clinical studies. Supporting research within our clinic helps ensure that our care remains informed by current evidence and evolving medical knowledge.

• Celebrated Leadership Achievement
Dr. Steven Zizzo, our Medical Director, received the International Achievement Alumni Award from the University of Sydney in recognition of his contributions to medicine and education. This honour reflects years of dedication to patient care, mentorship, and advancing healthcare. We are proud to see his work recognized.

• Supported Our Community and Team
Our staff organized a food drive to assist individuals and families in need and recognized important milestones and dates on the calendar. We also continue to prioritize team-building activities that strengthen collaboration and connection across the clinic.

• Continued Communication and Team Recognition
Through our monthly newsletter, we share clinic updates, health information, and community news. We also highlight one team member each month through our Team Showcase, recognizing the contributions of both front-line and behind-the-scenes staff who support Winterberry every day.

As Winterberry grows, our focus remains clear: to support prevention as well as recovery, to provide highly skilled, professional, and caring healthcare, and to serve our community through innovation, professionalism, and respect.
