The first clinics and their associated clinical research teams have moved into the new Djavad Mowafaghian Centre for Brain Health (CBH). Located next door to the Koerner Pavilion at UBC Hospital (UBCH), the centre is now open to the public and we would appreciate your assistance redirecting lost patients to the new building.

Who’s where in CBH

Old habits die hard. Despite our best efforts, some patients are arriving for their appointment at the old clinic locations. If you see someone who appears lost, please redirect them as follows:

• Movement Disorders Clinic and Pacific Parkinson’s Research Centre: 1^st floor of CBH
• Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Disorders Clinic and associated Clinical Trials: 2^nd floor of CBH
• Medical Daycare Clinic: 2^nd floor of CBH
• MS Clinic and MS Clinical Trials: 1^st  floor of CBH (excluding research-related appointments, this clinic is closed until Jan. 13, 2014)

Taking the bridge from Koerner to CBH

A bridge connects CBH with Koerner Pavilion and is open to all foot traffic from 7:30 am to 5 pm, Monday through Friday. If you’re redirecting patients across the bridge, please note that the bridge connection from Koerner’s 2^nd floor opens to the CBH 3^rd floor. Patients will need to take the elevator to the 1^st or 2^nd floor to reach their appointment. A directory at the elevator will point patients in the right direction.

Please note that we’re finding the bridge door shut and locked at times (an issue we’re working on). If you happen to notice a problem with the bridge door or can’t access the bridge, call the CBH Command Centre at: 604 827-2540.

Hours of operation

The CBH clinical floors (1^st and 2^nd floors) are open to the public Monday through Friday from 7:30 am to 5 pm. Clinic operating hours remain the same.

Other VCH clinics, as well as clinical trials/clinical research staff, will move into CBH this year. Read VCH News for the latest.
