Piispanportti health centre will provides health centre services for residents in nearby areas such as Kuitinmäki, Suurpelto and Henttaa as of 1 January 2022.

From the beginning of 2022, Espoo’s outsourced health centre will be operated by Pihlajalinna. Pihlajalinna will provide health centre services based on an agreement with the City of Espoo. The outsourced health centre operations were put out to tender as the agreement with Oma Lääkärisi Matinkylä ended. Pihlajalinna was the winner of the tendering process. 

A letter concerning the change was sent to the clients of Oma Lääkärisi Matinkylä in December 2021. An error occurred in the retrieval of addresses, and therefore people who had themselves selected Oma Lääkärisi Matinkylä as their health centre did not receive the letter. The error was noticed on Wednesday 5 January 2022. We sent a text message about the change on 10 and 11 January to people who did not receive the letter. We apologise if you did not receive the letter.

• Address: Piispanportti 10, 5th floor. It is the same building where the current outsourced health centre is located, but the floor will change.
