Welcome to the Ross Bay Health Centre
This is a safe and healing space. Please be kind.
September 2, 2022
Bridget Freeman, NP, will not be renewing her contract with the Ross Bay Health Centre.
Patients previously seen by Bridget Freeman will have their care transferred to Laura Todd or Rachelle Stevens, two new Nurse Practitioners, who are joining our Ross Bay Health Centre Team.
We would like to extend gratitude to Island Health for helping with the recruitment of Laura and Rachelle.
Bridget has asked us to convey how much she has enjoyed working with everyone during her time at this office, the decision to leave and prioritize her family was not made lightly.
***********
The Ross Bay Health Centre has a ZERO tolerance for abusive behaviors towards the front desk and/or health care providers.
We are a closed family practice and are not accepting patients.
Please do not call the front desk to inquire about becoming a patient. We do not keep a wait list.
Due to extremely high call volumes, telephone appointments should be booked through the online booking site.
All practitioners are currently booking 3-4 weeks in advance. While we try our best, we cannot often accommodate "fit-in" appointments.
If you cannot wait for the next available appointment time please visit medimap.ca or proceed to the nearest Urgent Care Clinic or Hospital.
