Preparing For Your Appointment




If you would like to be seen at the BC Centre for Vulvar Health, you need a referral from your doctor / NP
(see How To Refer).

Please discuss with your physician and have them fill out BOTH pages of the Referral Form.

Your physician can then submit by fax at 778-504-9743.

We only accept referrals from physicians / NPs for residents of B.C. & the Yukon.
  • Please be aware that parking near the Gordon & Leslie Diamond Centre at Vancouver General Hospital can be challenging. Please ensure you give yourself plenty of time (an extra 30-45 mins) to find parking so that you are able to arrive 15 minutes ahead of your appointment to complete relevant forms. We highly recommend taking transit/taxi or having someone drop you off at the entrance to the building.

  • The BCCVH has limited resources and high demand for our services. If you miss or cancel an appointment with less that 48 Hours notice we may not be able to rebook your appointment.
  • At the BCCVH we have several different clinics for vulvar conditions. Depending on the clinic you have been referred to your appointment will look differently:

    ‍Vulvar Pain Assessment Clinic: If you have been referred to the Vulvar / Sexual pain clinic please click here to go to the section on our website for what to expect at your first appointment.

    ‍Vulvar Disease Clinic: If you have been referred to the Vulvar Disease Clinic please click here for what to expect at your first appointment.
  • We are a University of British Columbia faculty of medicine teaching site, so we may have a learner in the clinic with us. This could include a medical student, a resident specializing in OBGYN or Dermatology or a gynaecologist doing further training in this area.
