The quality of life in Hawkesbury is enhanced by the cultural and entertainment opportunities of major art centers in Ottawa and Montreal as well as fantastic shopping just a short drive away.

Our modern healthcare center, built in 1984, offers a wide range of services from the emergency room to medicine, surgery, special care, obstetric, chronic care, palliative care and rehabilitation to outpatient clinics.  We are in need of doctors in family medicine, anesthesia and surgery.
