Reconstructive Surgery
Here at CR Plastic Surgery, we prioritize your care and well-being every step of the way. Here's how our referral process works:
Patients seeking care for concerns and procedures covered under the Medical Services Plan (MSP) are typically referred by their family doctor, specialist, or the emergency room. Referrals remain valid for six months.
Once referred, patients are placed on our waitlist and we work diligently to ensure you're seen in a timely manner. Our office will reach out to schedule your appointment when a suitable time becomes available, whether it's at our clinic office or at the Campbell River Hospital.
Please note that wait times can vary depending on the nature of your medical concern or procedure. We are committed to providing you with the care you need as efficiently as possible.
If you have any questions or concerns about the referral process, feel free to reach out to our friendly team—we're here to help!
