Comox Valley

Welcome to the Comox Valley Division of Family Practice

The Comox Valley Division of Family Practice brings family doctors together to identify opportunities for improving the delivery of local health care. We are committed to achieving meaningful change that benefits patients, doctors, and our community as a whole.

Comox Valley Primary Care Network Seeking Patient Partner

Team-based primary care is coming to the Comox Valley through the development of a Primary Care Network (PCN) which is seeking a patient partner for the Team-based Care Working Group. The patient partner would support the development of an integrated primary health system for primary and community care that is person-centred and delivers quality service experiences for individuals and their families. For more information, visit the listing on the Patient Voice BC website.
