Doctors & Clinics
Appointment-only family practice at No. 3 Road and Francis, one of two Live Well offices in Richmond. Covers primary and urgent care, adult immunizations, preventive checks, pre-operative clearance, wart treatment and sports injuries. No drop-ins.
Pre-operative clearance is the item on this clinic's list worth remembering, because people tend to scramble for it late and a surgery date does not move to accommodate anybody. Knowing that a Richmond office handles it can save a genuinely bad week. The rest of the scope covers most of what sends an adult to a doctor between annual visits: primary and urgent care, adult immunizations, preventive checks, wart treatment and sports injuries.
Finding a family doctor in British Columbia has been hard for years, and every household here has its own version of the story. The queue forming outside a walk-in before eight. The practice closed to new patients. The referral that took months to land. Understanding exactly what a clinic covers is worth more than a general search, and questions about how a new patient gets seen are better asked directly than assumed from a website.
The address sits at No. 3 Road and Francis, the Broadmoor end of the corridor rather than the City Centre end, and that changes the visit. This side of the city is residential and far easier to reach by car than anything north of Granville. Buses run frequently down No. 3 Road well past the point where the Canada Line stops, so getting here without a vehicle is realistic. One detail catches people out: two Live Well offices operate in Richmond, and they are not a short walk apart, so confirm which address your appointment is at before setting off.
