Role and Facility Information

As Canada’s largest outpatient medical clinic owner-operator we put patients and their family’s health first. We are committed to empowering patients with care that results in improved health outcomes. Our clinic is situated in the stunning Steveston Village. Being steps away from the fisherman’s wharf, the area boasts a variety of shops, cafes, restaurants, craft stores, and other businesses. Steveston Village is a popular tourist destination year-round, especially during the summer months. The fisherman’s wharf is one of the best locations to buy your fresh seafood all year round!

Fun Fact: Did you know Richmond is home of Canada’s largest commercial fishing harbour and one of the largest producers of cranberries in Canada? On your way to discover the fisherman’s wharf in Steveston Village, you’ll surely pass by many local farms.
