Start Somewhere That Feels Like Home

In Chilliwack, health is a way of living, rooted in how we connect with colleagues, and where and how we practice.

From clinic to hospital, forest to trail, wellness is woven into daily life. We grow people, not just health providers. When you join the Chilliwack Division of Family Practice, you step into a community that knows your name and genuinely wants you here.

The Chilliwack region is for people who want meaningful work and a balanced life. Whether you’re exploring or planning to stay, you’ll find real support and work that connects to who you are, inside and outside of your practice.

A Smooth Start From Day One

Moving to a new community shouldn’t feel overwhelming. That’s why we offer hands-on support with housing, logistics, and everything in between. Whether you’re coming for a short-term locum or making a long-term move, we provide tours of the area, information on schools, local transportation and recreation, and even offer a comfortable place to land to help make you feel settled from day one. It’s just one more way we make it easier to feel at home here.

Dr. Gabriel Pekun

From day one, the welcome was genuine and warm. Colleagues and other local doctors offered to host me, help orient me, invite me to play tennis, help with schooling options for my kids, and support me both personally and professionally. That kind of kindness made me feel like I belonged immediately.

When I first arrived in Chilliwack, I was struck by how welcoming the physician community was. The Division reached out immediately, not just to help me get settled professionally, but to support my family as well. One of the physicians even invited us to play pickleball, and my husband became so passionate about it that he now plays regularly.
