Saltspring Island Health Centre is your home for comprehensive healthcare on Salt Spring Island

We are a team of family physicians and midwives providing full service family practice for residents of Salt Spring Island. We practice together under a collaborative model of care. We are pleased to offer a women’s health clinic monthly, as well as IUD insertions, and medical abortion services. These services are open to all residents of Salt Spring Island.

Our physicians provide full-service family practice within a comprehensive rural model of care. Physicians provide on-call emergency care at Lady Minto Hospital, inpatient care for patients admitted to hospital and residential and palliative care services.

We are not a walk in clinic, however, we do offer urgent care phone appointments to visitors to the Island during the busy summer months. If you are from off island and need to be seen for an urgent issue please call 250-537-1828 to book an appointment. For any medical emergencies please visit our local hospital emergency room at Lady Minto Hospital.

Teamwork

Saltspring Island Health Centre takes pride in our close partnerships with allied health providers; we work with hospital staff, mental health clinicians, community paramedicine, pharmacists, community care nursing, public health, social workers, physiotherapists and specialist colleagues to support patients in getting the care they need from the most appropriate providers.

Comprehensive Care

Our physicians work across all community settings to help deliver care where it is needed. Whether you’re at the office, in the hospital, living in residential care or house bound a physician from your team is available to support you. Our midwife provides both hospital and home birth as well as full service prenatal and post-delivery services.

Through all stages of life

With services ranging from midwifery to full scope family practice we can care for the newest member of your family all the way through to your oldest. When you are in need we’ll be there to help you navigate the healthcare system and transition into and out of services. Salt Spring Island is our home and we are committed to being Your Home for Health.
