Retirement update March 28, 2025
Dr. Gwen Bruce-Houle will be retiring on June 27, 2025 after 40 years in practice. Letters are being sent via Medeo messaging as well as by mail with details.
Unfortunately, she has not been able to find a new physician to take over her practice; therefore, we urge you to begin searching for a new doctor. You can do this by:
- Visiting the Pathways Medical Directory (pathwaysmedicalcare.ca)
- Contacting HealthLink BC using 8-1-1 toll-free number (or 7-1-1 if you are hearing impaired) or visiting their website at healthlinkbc.ca.
- Contacting your local Divisions of Family Practice (divisonsbc.ca), as some are establishing physician directories.
- Visiting a local walk-in clinic or Urgent Primary Care Centre (UPCC). UPCCs also serve as primary care clinics for people who do not have a regular primary care provider and will work to connect them to a primary care clinic as space is available.
- Asking friends and family for recommendations.
To request your medical records please email the clinic at: info @ pacificstationmed.ca. Record requests will be completed after Dr Bruce-Houle’s last date worked so that you receive a complete file. There is a cost of $48.00 to transfer records.

Any in-office visit that is essential will be arranged by the provider at the time of your phone call. When your provider determines you need to be seen, please keep the following precautions in mind:
∼ A mask is required in all medical settings
∼ Patients will be asked to use hand sanitizer
