Welcome to our practice

Please note, our clinic recently moved to #107-301 East Columbia Street New Westminster. Our clinic was formally Austin Family Physicians and is now Sapperton Medical Clinic.

 

Dr. Read is Retiring December 1st, 2023

I am retiring from my Medical Practice as of Dec 1st, 2023. It has been a privilege to have provided primary medical care for my patients since 1978.

Dr. Kate Kim will be joining the practice. She will be taking on many of the existing patients but unfortunately will not be able to accommodate those living outside the Fraser Health Region.

Those living outside the region will need to find a new Family Doctor or a Nurse Practitioner. Chart transfers can be sent to the office.
