About us

The Locke Street Clinic (formally called the Locke Street Afterhours Inc.) has been in operation since October 1990.  It is nestled in between two hospitals in downtown Hamilton: St. Joseph's Hospital and McMaster Hospital.

The clinic was started by Dr. Snehlata Chakraburtty in October 1990.  With a background in Emergency and Internal Medicine, she created the Locke Street Clinic.  She continued the clinic until 1999 and gave managerial responsibilities to her daughter, Meenakshi.   During her working life and now retirement, she spends her time writing and is an author of more than four books.

In 1999, Meenakshi Chakraburtty-Bhaga took ownership of the clinic, becoming its owner as well as its manager.

Meenakshi has university education and a six years of Paramedics experience that contributes to her expertise in managing the Clinic.  She continues the clinic as a family business. Her goal: "look after each individual that walks into the clinic, with their issues as the focus. No problem is too big or too small from a patient's perspective, and we strive to meet every patient's needs from start to finish."

"Wholistic Treatment for you and your family"  ...is the motto of the Locke Street Medical Clinic
