The Vancouver Division of Family Practice (VDoFP) brings Vancouver family doctors together to identify opportunities to improve the delivery of local health care. We are committed to meaningful change that benefits patients, doctors, and our community at large.

The Vancouver Division is a not-for-profit society funded by the Government of British Columbia and Doctors of BC. We work in partnership with Vancouver Coastal Health, British Columbia Ministry of Health, Providence Health Care, and other community partners. All local community-based doctors are welcome to become Division members.

Pathways Registration

Members of the Vancouver Division of Family Practice are invited to enroll to use Pathways – a new online database that dramatically improves referrals to specialists and clinics. Pathways will be available in Vancouver through funding from the GPSC and the Vancouver Division of Family Practice. There is no cost to you. All you need is an e-mail address to establish your account and start using Pathways. There is no limit to the number of people who can use Pathways simultaneously. The Pathways team has sent invitations to all Division members by email.  If you have not received an invitation, please contact us.  If you work with other physicians, we only require one copy of the form to cover everyone in your office.  Additional or personal Pathways accounts can also be requested.
