Abbotsford, the “City in the Country”, is nested in the shadow of majestic Mt. Baker, in the eastern Fraser Valley, and has a blend of modern urban living and a friendly country atmosphere. Thanks to the comfortable west coast climate and surrounding geography, a variety of recreational opportunities are nearby. Abbotsford is at a short drive to Vancouver, BC and Seattle, WA.

In addition to being licensed to practice as a family physician in British Columbia, the GPO will also meet the requirements for appointment as a member of the medical staff of the BC Cancer Agency and Abbotsford Regional Hospital.
