Renowned for its breathtaking natural beauty, Vancouver Island is the true west coast, located offshore from the city of Vancouver in British Columbia. Vancouver Island is home to British Columbia’s historic capital, ancient rainforests and carefree surf towns. This sprawling island is dotted with eclectic communities inviting you to find your place. The island stretches for 460 kilometres, from the ornate capital of Victoria in the south to Cape Scott’s windswept beaches and rocky headlands at its northern tip. Along with the Gulf Islands, this rugged paradise combines old-growth forests, snow-capped mountains and untamed shorelines to create one of the planet’s most diverse ecosystems. Whatever the lifestyle you are looking for, we will help you find it. The island’s cities are brimming with cultural events, festivals, markets and restaurants as well as friendly towns with close-knit neighbourhoods and world-class outdoor adventure. Just two hours north of Seattle and with regularly scheduled flight and ferry services, Vancouver Island is well connected to the Seattle, Vancouver, BC and national and international destinations through connecting airport. Vancouver Island offers an exceptional environment for both living and practicing medicine, allowing you to achieve and surpass your professional and lifestyle aspirations. |
