Chippewa Medical Associates celebrating Open House

To celebrate its office expansion, Chippewa Medical Associates in Sault Ste. Marie is having an Open House. Chippewa Medical Associates is a clinic of Marquette General Health System.

The event, scheduled to be held from 4 to 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 9, will offer people an opportunity to meet the staff, enjoy refreshments and hors d’eurvres, and tour the new office.

According to Clinic Manager Chrissie Stanaway, three internal medicine specialists — Drs. Theodore Anuebunwa, Rozina Parveen and Shmaila Ishaq — and Dr. Adnan Alkhalili, a medical oncologist, will be at the Open House. All are board-certified internal medicine specialists; Alkhalili is also board certified in medical oncology.

In addition, the Upper Michigan Heart Institute at Marquette General will offer a Pocket EKG Screening from 1 to 4 p.m.; the fee is $20. To schedule an appointment, call 1-800-562-9753, ext. 4942. The Upper Michigan Cancer Center and Marquette General Home Health-Sault Ste. Marie will also have displays at the Open House.

“We’re really excited about our new facility,” Stanaway said. “We’ve doubled our space. Our patients will like the expanded waiting room area. We’ve already received a number of nice compliments on that.”

The new facility, located in Suite 5 in the Avery Square at 510 Ashmun, features an International Council for Quality Care (ICQC) system in which each physician has his/her own workstation, improving the continuity of care. With the system, each physician has his/her own exam room, nurse, support staff and records all within arm’s length.

Chippewa Medical Associates offers an assortment of services that deal with the diagnosis and treatment of non-surgical diseases in adults.

“The new facility, we feel, will better serve our patients,” Stanaway said. “We encourage the public to come to the Open House and see our new facility.”

In January, cardiologist Dr. M. Tariq Vakani will join Chippewa Medical Associates.
