As stated in a release from the NEO Clinic, the new 4,000-square-foot location at 673 Innovation Drive, Unit 6, held its official ribbon-cutting event on Wednesday, Jun. 17, 2026. Mayor Bryan Paterson and Ted Hsu, Member of Provincial Parliament (MPP) for Kingston and the Islands, joined NEO Clinic staff, healthcare partners, patients, and community members to mark this achievement.
“Access to timely neurological care remains a significant challenge for many patients,” said Dr. Ramana Appireddy, Neurologist and Medical Director at NEO Clinic.
“This expansion allows us to improve access to specialized care for people living with headaches, migraines, and other neurological conditions while providing a modern environment that supports better patient experiences and outcomes. As demand for neurological services continues to grow, our goal is to ensure patients can access the care they need closer to home and as quickly as possible.”
As part of this growth plan, NEO Clinic is broadening its Comprehensive Headache Program for quicker access to specialized assessment and treatment while also introducing Neuro Physiotherapy services aimed at rehabilitation for Parkinson’s disease, stroke recovery, mobility issues, and balance disorders as mentioned in their release.
“We’re excited about this collaboration,” said Dr. Michael Fitzpatrick, Chief of Staff & Executive Vice President Medical and Academic Affairs at Kingston Health Sciences Centre (KHSC).
“KHSC functions as a hospital without walls, and we’re delighted to work with community specialists to extend capacity and provide better access to care for patients.”
Alongside clinical care improvements, NEO Clinic is also enhancing its role in clinical research through a partnership with the Limestone Clinical Trials Unit. This will offer patients opportunities to participate in trials assessing new treatments for neurological conditions as outlined by the organization.
“NEO Clinic represents the kind of healthcare innovation that has the potential to transform patient access to care,” said Ben Mc Ilquham, Investment Manager in Life Sciences and Health Innovation for the Kingston Economic Development Corporation.
“By delivering specialized neurological services in a community setting and helping reduce wait times for patients across Eastern Ontario Dr. Appireddy and his team are addressing an important healthcare need in our region. We congratulate the entire team on opening their new facility and look forward to their continued impact on patients and families across Eastern Ontario.”
