Role and Facility Information
The Fraser West Plastic Surgery Group and the Fraser Health Authority is looking to hire a plastic surgeon to join our group of thirteen surgeons. This is a full-time position at Peace Arch Hospital (PAH). Additional elective time is available at Surrey Memorial Hospital (SMH) and Jim Pattison Outpatient Care & Surgery Centre (JPOCSC).
The ideal applicant will have an interest in microsurgery, skin cancer and hand surgery. Fellowship training is required. The successful applicant will become part of a call group covering a level 1 trauma centre and will therefore need to be comfortable providing all levels of plastic surgery trauma care.
Peace Arch Hospital is a community hospital that is part of the Frasier Health Authority, BC’s largest and fastest growing health authority. SMH and JPOCSC provide tertiary level care for the region. Multiple private clinics also offer resources in the area.
The group is affiliated with the University of British Columbia (UBC), Division of Plastic Surgery, with teaching opportunities for medical students and residents, though this is not a primary residency training site. As a member of the Fraser Health medical staff, you will participate in the UBC medical education program and are expected to apply for a clinical faculty appointment in the Division of Plastic Surgery, UBC.
The successful applicant would share office space with the seven surgeons currently based in Surrey, British Columbia. They must be an efficient team player who is comfortable working with a group.
General Plastic surgery call is currently 1 in 11. A MOCAP agreement provides an on-call stipend. Call is shared with the Royal Columbian Hospital group and covers the level 1 trauma centre.

It is located approximately 45 minutes from Vancouver and an hour and a half from Seattle. It is an excellent place to raise a family with seemingly unlimited numbers of recreational activities, fine restaurants, and top schools.
Please submit letters of interest, a copy of your CV, cover letter and three letters of reference or contact names by April 22, 2025. Letters of reference must include your residency and fellowship program directors. If you have been in practice for at least four years, a letter from your chief of surgery will be accepted in lieu of your program supervisor(s).
