Why Tofino?

Tofino is a coastal village on the traditional territory of the Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation, part of the Nuu-chah-nulth peoples, whose stewardship of this land stretches back thousands of years. Living here offers more than just proximity to breathtaking beaches and ancient rainforest — it's an opportunity to work in partnership with Indigenous communities and contribute to reconciliation through respectful, culturally safe care.

Known for its natural beauty, Tofino attracts those who value balance, connection, and purpose. Whether it's surfing at Chesterman Beach, walking the Tonquin Trail, paddling the inlet, or watching storms roll in from the Pacific, life here moves at a more intentional pace. It's a place where nature and community are guides, fostering a pharmacy practice that is an integral part of the circle of care.
