Office Closure

The Sea to Sky Division of Family Practice will be closed the week of December 23 – 27, 2024 for the holiday week. On behalf of staff and Board, we want to take a moment to recognize and thank you for your unwavering dedication to the health and well-being of our communities. The holidays can be a time of celebration, reflection, and connection. Yet, for many of you, they are also a time of continued service. Whether you’re spending the season with loved ones or working to ensure patients receive the care they need, your contributions do not go unnoticed or unappreciated. We hope this season brings moments of joy, peace, and rest—whether it’s a quiet cup of coffee, a heartfelt thank-you from a patient, or time spent with family and friends.

This past May, Whistler's Dr. Karin Kausky accepted the RCCbc Community Award  from the Rural Coordination Centre of BC (RCCbc) on behalf of the community of Whistler for our COVID-19 response.

Each year, the RCCbc recognizes the phenomenal work of BC’s rural physicians and communities and identifies a community that has developed innovative and collaborative approaches and solutions to local healthcare issues or supported and enhanced the sustainability of the rural health care services and /or providers within their community. The community celebrated receiving the award this past September and copies were handed out to community partners in recognition of their collaboration.

What are Divisions of Family Practice?

Divisions of Family Practice are sponsored by the Family Practice Services Committee, a joint committee of the BC Ministry of Health and Doctors of BC. Divisions were designed to improve patient care, increase Family Physicians’ influence on health care delivery and policy, and to support improved professional satisfaction for physicians.

The Sea to Sky Division of Family Practice is an independent society providing family practice leadership at community, regional, and provincial levels. Members advocate for and develop programs to fit the health care needs of the Sea to Sky region.
