Sutherland reviewed all the services to determine how the hospital could expand its orthopedics program to support elective surgeries and help improve surgery wait times. The proposal needed structural changes to the new clinic space, including widened doorframes for accessibility, the creation of a reception and waiting area, wall-mounted computers and additional furniture.

Sutherland added that the clinic’s new designated patient registry and reception area support improved patient flow in the orthopedics department and reduced patient load for the hospital's central registry.
