The Fraser Northwest Division encompasses family physicians in Anmore, Belcarra, Coquitlam, New Westminster, Port Coquitlam, and Port Moody. We represent the traditional catchment area of the Royal Columbian & Eagle Ridge Hospitals.
Together, the members work to improve patient access to local primary care, increase local physicians’ influence on health care delivery and policy, and provide professional support for physicians.
