Come work as a Orthopedic Surgeon with Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH)!

The Division of Orthopaedics is seeking a full-time surgeon to be based out of Lions Gate Hospital, which is part of Vancouver Coastal Health.

Lions Gate Hospital is an urban facility, designated a Regional Trauma Centre (Level 2) and Regional Referral Centre with a geographically extensive catchment area.

This teaching hospital is affiliated with the University of British Columbia. Our group is actively involved in the education of medical students, residents, and fellows.

The Division of Orthopaedics at Lions Gate Hospital is currently comprised of 9 surgeons representing most orthopaedic subspecialties (excluding hand and spine).

The focus of the new surgeon’s elective practice will be foot and ankle. Our care delivery models benefit from a centralized referral intake and triage system, and well-established group practice.

In addition to their elective practice, the surgeon will be part of the orthopaedic trauma team at Lions Gate Hospital (approximately 50% practice volume).

We perform 1800-2000 trauma cases per year, including a large volume of complex extremity fractures, sports-related injuries, fractures in the frail / elderly, and periprosthetic fractures.

The orthopaedic trauma team at Lions Gate Hospital has 60 hours per week of dedicated operating room time to treat traumatic injuries and urgent orthopaedic conditions.
