WESTLOCK — Local and area families now have improved access to care with the arrival of a new physician practising in the community.

Dr. Ali Saiyed is a long-term locum physician who recently accepted a full-time permanent position in Westlock. Dr. Saiyed will be providing care at the Westlock Healthcare Centre and practising out of the Associated Medical Clinic.

He joins a team of 14 other family medicine physicians in the community.

“I’m grateful Dr. Saiyed has accepted this full-time position and is committed to ensuring area residents have lasting access to primary care,” says Glenn Van Dijken, MLA for Athabasca-Barrhead-Westlock. “The Government of Alberta knows healthcare is an integral service everywhere in the province and we’re working to attract skilled professionals to our rural communities.”
