Find a family doctor

Why is it essential to take these steps quickly?

  • Bad news: finding a family doctor in British Columbia can be difficult, even in English!
  • To benefit from personalized care with someone you trust who knows your medical history.
  • Less stress.

How do I find a family doctor?

Once you have received your BC Services Card and completed your MSP registration:

  • Register with Health Connect (English only).
  • You will be placed on a waiting list to find a family doctor or nurse practitioner in your area.

Please note: Depending
on your situation, this may take several years!

Temporary solutions

  • Visit a walk-in clinic, first come, first served.
  • Opt for a virtual consultation.
  • Refill certain prescriptions or get medical advice from your pharmacist.
