Terra Nova Clinic Brings U.S. Nurse Practitioners to Esquimalt | Vancouver News

A brand-new medical clinic in Esquimalt is set to revolutionize primary care, welcoming 6,000 patients with six nurse practitioners—five from the U.S.—ready to offer long-term, patient-centered care. With exam rooms designed for families and rent-free space for a decade, this clinic blends accessibility with innovation. Nurse practitioners here hold broad clinical authority, offering everything from diagnosis to referrals, while owners—a physician couple with 25 clinics under their belt—plan to expand further. International recruits cite political and professional frustrations as key motivators, seeking deeper patient connections and evidence-based medicine. Backed by a network of 100 physicians, this model aims to create a seamless, integrated healthcare experience—even as specialists are still being recruited for the island.
