Due to a limited number of Family Doctors and Nurse Practitioners in Burnaby accepting new patients through the Patient Attachment Initiative at this time, the expected wait time for patient attachment is up to 18 months or more. 

The Burnaby Division of Family Practice – Patient Attachment Initiative cannot guarantee a match with a Primary Care Provider, please continue to search for a Family Doctor or Nurse Practitioner on your own.

Please continue to seek care at a walk-in clinic, the Edmonds Urgent and Primary Care Centre (https://divisionsbc.ca/burnaby/our-work/pcn/urgent-primary-care-clinic-upcc) (or if necessary, an Emergency Room) while you are waiting to be matched.

PLEASE NOTE: The Edmonds Urgent and Primary Care Centre (UPCC) is not an Emergency Room. It cannot treat patients with serious illnesses or injuries such as broken bones, chest pains or head injuries.
