Shoreline Medical Society

Shoreline Medical provides the Saanich Peninsula community with a range of primary health care and health promotion services, delivered by a team of health care professionals providing wraparound care with continuity between clinic, hospital, and home-based care.

Our vision is to be a leading primary care network for the Saanich Peninsula, integrating multiple disciplines working together to provide accessible community health care.

Shoreline was built by this community, for this community. Since opening in 2016, we have grown from five to 27 physicians and nurse practitioners, attached more than 16,000 patients to a primary care provider, and saved the peninsula's only youth clinic from closure. Our physicians are on the ground at Saanich Peninsula Hospital, providing more than one-third of all inpatient care, performing surgical assists, and supporting the emergency department. They also deliver palliative, maternity, and long-term care to the broader community. This is what it means to be an integral part of the local health system, not just a clinic.

As an operating charity, we raise funds to sustain and grow services that fall outside regular public funding but are essential to care on the Saanich Peninsula, including recruitment and retention of primary care providers, unfunded costs to support hospital and team-based care, facility and equipment upgrades, and critical counselling and support services for youth.

The Shoreline Youth Clinic is the only provider of targeted youth primary, mental health, and substance use care on the Saanich Peninsula, and it is supported almost entirely by donations from generous community members like you. In 2025, we delivered more than 400 medical and counselling appointments to local youth aged 12–24, while continuing to see significant unmet need in our community. Your gift helps us sustain these services and expand access as we are able.
