New equipment enhances urology care in Muskoka

Wednesday, 22 April 2026 08:49

The new equipment was installed at the South Muskoka Memorial Hospital

The South Muskoka Memorial Hospital has introduced new medical equipment aimed at improving urology care for patients in the region.

A newly installed fluoroscopy table provides real-time imaging during specialized procedures, helping enhance precision and efficiency for clinicians.

Hospital officials also confirm the arrival of Dr. Bruce MacDonald, who joins the urology team alongside Dr. Jonathan Rhee following a recent staffing change.

Doctors say the upgrades will help reduce the need for patients to travel outside Muskoka for care.

Staff describe the changes as a step forward in expanding local access to specialized medical services.
