Misericordia Health Centre, located at 99 Cornish Ave in Winnipeg, Manitoba, is a specialty-focused health facility founded in 1898 by the Misericordia Sisters, serving the downtown Winnipeg community with a continuum of care rather than a traditional full emergency department. The centre is home to the renowned Buhler Eye Care Centre of Excellence, a provincial Sleep Disorder Centre, a Minor Injury and Illness Clinic, and a 100-bed personal care home. Patients experiencing cardiac, trauma, stroke, or pediatric emergencies should proceed directly to Health Sciences Centre or St. Boniface Hospital, as Misericordia is best suited for eye emergencies, minor injuries and illnesses, seniors care, and diagnostic imaging.
Parking is available in an on-site parkade at 25 Sherbrook St, connected to the facility via overpass. Metered surface lot parking costs $3/hour with a three-hour maximum — not recommended for longer appointments. Monthly parkade passes are available at $85/month with unlimited in-and-out access. Accessible parking is located on Overpass Level 2B near the elevator; a valid provincial accessible parking permit must be displayed. Note: City of Winnipeg discount programs do not apply to on-site meters. Electrical plug-ins are available in the parkade during winter months.
Misericordia Health Centre is served by several Winnipeg Transit routes: Route #17 McGregor on Wolseley Ave; Routes #20 Academy Watt and #29 Sherbrook on both Maryland St and Sherbrook St. The closest stops are 'Northbound Sherbrook at Misericordia Health Ctr' and 'Southbound Maryland at Misericordia Health Centre.' For schedules and fares, call Winnipeg Transit at 204-986-5700 or visit winnipegtransit.com.
The Minor Injury and Illness Clinic typically sees lower volumes early in the morning on weekdays. Booking online at medinav.ca for a same-day appointment is the best way to minimize wait times at Misericordia.
Lunch hours and late afternoons on weekdays tend to be busier for walk-in clinic services. If your situation is not time-sensitive, avoid arriving without an appointment during peak afternoon hours.
Emergency departments use triage — patients with more serious conditions are seen first, regardless of arrival time.
Wait times are estimates based on Manitoba health data using historical volumes, current patient counts, and staffing. Actual wait times may vary.
If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 immediately.
