    This is not a regular doctor's office, but part of the UBC students' training. About 10 doctors,…read moreone nurse (for pap exams), one dietician are here, to supervise the students. As a result, each appointment starts with the student coming in and asking about your symptoms. She may perform small exams as she fees fit, then go confer with your doctor. Then, they both come in and offer prescriptions or whatever is necessary. I like this because I get a thorough inspection and the student usually narrates what she is doing (feeling the lymph nodes, etc.). I happened to go twice a month apart, and the student was different. So, this setup is not for people who want to see one doctor quickly and get out. Apparently, they are funded by the government by how many patients are registered there, as opposed to the usual offices being reimbursed per patient visit. This is why they ask patients to always come to them, and not go to walk-in clinics. I have been able to book an appointment with my doctor the day I call. If he is not available, they offer an appointment with another one of the doctors. The official address lists it as on Oak St, but it is deep inside the hospital complex, so it's easier to get to from the parking lot entrance on Heather at 29th Ave. Follow the sidewalk on the north side. It's the building after the first crosswalk. Go up the ramp on the corner.

    Wonderful family clinic that treats based on the current research. Dr. Marhin is always willing to…read moretake the extra time to answer all my questions and it is nice to have female residents to do my pap exams. My daughter is very comfortable and likes coming as well. Sometimes the exams take a bit longer because of the teaching setting, but as a plus I can always get in within a day or two to see a doctor, even if not my own another is on call on Saturdays. They are now located on Broadway at Willow and there is parking available on the roof.

    Moving here to Vancouver from the States 18 months ago, I had no idea how the Canadian, or the…read moreprovincial BC medical system worked, nor did I have a GP here for myself or my family. I was SO lucky to be referred to Dr. Brian Yau here (and lucky that he was taking new patients, too). In the past, when I lived in Seattle, it took me a while to find doctors and dentists that I "clicked" with. I always felt that it takes a team effort - me and my doctor, - to be most effective in my staying/being healthy. So it's critical that I'm comfortable with my doctor to talk openly with him or her. It's in my best interest to "click" with him/her. And it's critical that he/she be knowledgeable, receptive, accessible and helpful. Bonus if the office staff is friendly and works with me and my schedule. Dr. Yau and his office staff are all these things, and more. They've fit me in the Dr's schedule ASAP when I needed to be seen. Dr. Yau is working with my WA doctors to follow up on past conditions and provide continuity of care. He takes the time to patiently go over all the many ways the system here differs from that in the States, and helps me navigate my way here re: blood work, referrals to other medical specialists, etc. He's also been incredibly helpful for my daughter, too. Another bonus here: Dr. Yau is incredibly prompt. (I always get irked when kept waiting and waiting, appointment after appointment, at doctors' and dentists' offices. It's as if my time isn't respected at all. Sure, once in a while is understandable but when it happens regularly, it really rubs me the wrong way). Dr. Yau has always seen me within 5 minutes of our appointment time. To me, that is yet another sign that he cares about his patients. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Yau and the office staff here. My only caveats (which are admittedly minor): no free parking or validated parking here, and no wi-fi in the office (bummer). Otherwise, this practice here is stellar. I consider myself super lucky to be a patient here.

    I started as a patient of Dr. Nguan while she was on maternity leave and ended up seeing her locums…read morewho were all great. Then I met Dr. Nguan and she is one of the most kind hearted Dr's I have ever been to! It took me years to find a Dr that would take on new patients and to luck out and find the most amazing Dr in the city is just amazing! The reception is great, they are friendly and helpful. After being to a lot of clinics with extremely rude receptionists this really tips the scales in their favor! They always work with me to find an appointment that will suit my schedule which is really important for me since I don't live or work close to the office (but it's worth the travel!) I believe one of the locums I saw Dr. Bergman now works in the office as well so if you are looking for a male Dr he is also amazing!

    Given the conditions people are working under these days I think these folks do a great job and…read moredeserve some kudos. Receptionist was so pleasant it was unbelievable, what a "gem" and lab tech who was working by herself because of a shortage of staff was super nice and very efficient. Even though I had to wait a bit I can't believe the stress these folks are under these days. Not their fault the system is close to the edge, but without their efforts every day, the system would definitely hit a wall.

    I was supposed to just rest here for the night to wade out the rainstorm on my way to Lions Gate…read moreHospital. The doctor in Whistler had phoned ahead to have a surgeon look me over. By the time I had arrived I was so hopped up on morphine I didn't really know what was happening. First a nurse, Sabrina (I have no idea how I remember her name out of everyone) took my temperature. Still not that high. Maybe the nurse at the Whistler Health Centre was right, maybe I did just have a bad stomach ache. Then Dr. Gaully examined me. The next thing I know I am being rushed into the OR with someone trying to get as much information as they can from me before they put me under general. I started crying. I couldn't take it in. I was trying to explain to everyone that it was just a stomach ache and that I was going to get an MRI tomorrow in Vancouver. The anesthesiologist looked at me with concern in his eyes and said, "We don't have that kind of time. We need to operate on you now. Now take a puff of this inhaler....Good now breathe and count to...." The next thing I knew someone was waking me up. My whole body was in pain. For the next twelve hours someone would come in regularly to take my vitals and make sure I was doing ok. While I was conked out, my friend who came with me to the hospital was allowed to sleep on a couch in the break room. They really went above and beyond making sure she was comfortable too. After two days I was released. Because they just didn't have the technology I have a big old-fashioned appendix scar instead of one of the modern three little nothings that most people. I'm not complaining though, for without them, I would have died. As it was, my appendix was already oozing and was just about to burst when they operated. My heart goes out to all of the amazing doctors and nursed who helped me. It was far superior care than any I've gotten in the states.
