Social Pediatrics

We serve community members across Vancouver’s inner-city neighbourhoods including Grandview/Woodlands, Strathcona, and the Downtown East Side. 

We offer a range of programs and services, including:

• Primary health care clinics staffed by nurse practitioners. Primary health care includes caring for children and youth who are sick with common illnesses, routine screening for childhood illnesses, and writing prescriptions
• Pediatric specialty appointments
• School, community centre, and partner clinic outreach

Referral information

The primary care clinic accepts referrals from health-care providers, schools and community agencies. Parents or caregivers can also make an appointment for their child or youth themselves.

Our pediatric specialty services need a referral from a doctor or nurse practitioner. Visit our referral page for more information.

Appointment details

You do not need to prepare for your child or youth's appointment, unless your doctor asks you to.  

We have residents and learning staff in our clinic.

If you need to cancel an appointment, call the clinic as soon as possible at: 604-875-2246. If nobody answers, please leave a message with your name, contact number and the reason you are calling.
