St. Paul’s Hospital

We provide a service to patients seen by Providence orthopedic or plastic surgeons and provide specialty care that is not available through private clinics. We also provide outpatient support for those discharged from inpatient programs. Types of care include musculoskeletal and respiratory rehab.

Waitlist Criteria

  • All patients must be referred by an orthopedic and/or plastic surgeon within Providence – Holy Family, MSJ (+ any UBC Knee or Hip Replacement).
  • For all joint replacements (hip/knee/shoulder/elbow/ankle): our goal is to book an appointment within 7-10 days after referral.
  • Acute fractures/surgeries.
  • All breast reconstruction/mastectomy patients.
  • Lymphedema.

The outpatient department often operates with a waitlist, however, the secretary will advise/suggest that patients attend private practice therapy until they can be booked at St. Paul’s.

Located in: Vancouver Coastal Health Authority (VCH).
