Pan Am Clinic Foundation

What Pan Am Clinic Foundation does

Pan Am Clinic Foundation operates as a multi-disciplinary musculoskeletal and sports medicine facility in Winnipeg, Manitoba, serving approximately 250,000 patients annually from across Manitoba, Northwestern Ontario, and Central Nunavut. Founded in 1979 as a private sports medicine clinic, it converted to an operating division of the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority (WRHA) in 2001. The 72,000 ft² main campus at 75 Poseidon Bay, supplemented by a satellite Concussion Program at the MTS Iceplex (2014), delivers comprehensive specialty services including a Minor Injury Clinic, Sport Medicine, Orthopaedic and Plastic Surgery, Physiotherapy, MRI, X-Ray, Pain Management, Casting, Running & Gait Centre, and a dedicated Minor Injury Clinic for Kids.

The facility's underlying technology base includes MRI and digital X-ray imaging, two fully integrated orthopaedic operating rooms with ceiling-mounted surgical booms and international video conferencing capability, a Biomechanics Research Centre with strength testing dynamometry, motion analysis systems, an anti-gravity treadmill, ultrasound imaging, and physical activity monitoring, plus an Arthroscopic Skills Training Centre featuring virtual arthroscopic trainers and cadaveric specimens. Research infrastructure is anchored by the David & Ruth Asper Research Centre, which runs over 40 ongoing clinical studies involving more than 800 patients. The CONNECT program extends pediatric concussion assessment via telemedicine into Northwestern Ontario and Central Nunavut.

The clinic is funded primarily through Manitoba Health and the WRHA public system, with services covered for valid Manitoba Health cardholders and residents of all Canadian provinces and territories except Quebec. Supplementary revenue includes fee-for-service items not covered by public funding (crutches at $40, specialty cast applications, health records processing at $25 plus $0.50 per copy, and individually priced cosmetic surgery) and charitable donations to the Pan Am Clinic Foundation (CRA Registration 89595 3032 RR0001), which supports research, fellowship education, and the Medical Careers Exploration Program (MCEP) for Indigenous youth in partnership with the University of Manitoba, Children of the Earth High School, and the Winnipeg School Division.
