We respectfully acknowledge the unceded traditional territory of the K’ómoks First Nation and the traditional keepers of their land. Thank you for allowing us to live, work and play on your lands.

Overview

A Primary Care Network (PCN) is a community-based network of health care professionals and clinics who plan and deliver the health care needs of a community.

The Comox Valley PCN team is working with local clinics to help connect people to a primary care provider, either a family doctor or nurse practitioner. This includes people living in the following communities:

  • Comox
  • Buckley Bay
  • Courtenay
  • Cumberland
  • Denman Island
  • Fanny Bay
  • Grantham
  • Hornby Island
  • K'ómoks
  • Little River
  • Merville
  • Mud Bay
  • Royston
  • Union Bay

Find a family doctor or nurse practitioner

If you need a primary care provider, register on the Health Connect Registry to get matched with a family doctor or nurse practitioner in your community.

Comox Valley UPCC opening

Everyone in the Comox Valley, including those in Cumberland, Courtenay, Comox and K’ómoks First Nation, who wants to be connected to a family doctor will soon have access to one, thanks to the recruitment of dozens of family doctors in partnership with the local primary-care network.

Additionally, people’s health care in the region will be further strengthened with the official opening of Phase 1 of a new urgent and primary care centre (UPCC).
