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 Pemberton Primary Care Network 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:

  • Pemberton
  • Mt. Currie / Lil’wat First Nation
  • N'Quatqua First Nation
  • Samahquam First Nation
  • Skatin First Nation
  • Port Douglas / Xa’xtsa First Nation

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. Wait times will vary based on each doctor and nurse practitioner's capacity.
