Nanaimo Pediatrics

Nanaimo Pediatrics is a collaborative project implemented by the Nanaimo pediatricians and their medical office assistants.

We are proud to report that Nanaimo Pediatrics is the first pediatric group in BC that offers a central intake system for all Pediatric referrals. This means one access point for referrals to go to, and the choice to see a specific pediatrician or the “First Available Pediatrician”. This central intake system has been demonstrated to improve the patient experience, strengthen communication between your primary care provider and pediatrician, and most importantly, reduce the wait times for consultation.

Pediatricians work out of several offices in our community:

Waiting for an appointment can be very stressful. We hope that our wait times for consultation will go down with our new referral system. While waiting, click the link below for our “While you Wait” resources that you may find helpful.
