Fundraising Status:

Peace Arch Hospital Foundation is currently in it’s “quiet phase” of fundraising. During this phase, we are seeking participation from all physicians and staff so that when we turn around and ask our donors for their help, we can let them know that all Peace Arch Hospital staff also support this campaign for improved medical imaging. 

We are still actively engaging prospective donors through tours of the Medical Imaging Department. Thank you to all staff who have helped conduct tours thus far! We have had several donors make gifts of appreciation in your honour, or as a result of the information shared on these tours.

of $10M goal reached.

"Advancements in medical imaging over the years have revolutionized so many facets of patient care, from screening, diagnosis, and surveillance, to offering minimally-invasive procedures. The opportunity to improve access to state-of-the-art imaging technology and infrastructure at Peace Arch Hospital will allow us to push the envelope in providing rapid and accurate diagnosis for our patients and community -- the future is exciting!"
Dr. Hamed Basseri, Radiologist, Peace Arch Hospital

About the Campaign

Medical Imaging techniques and technologies have improved immensely since Peace Arch Hospital first opened its doors. We want to help you do what you do best by providing the best equipment possible.

Working in partnership with Fraser Health, we’ve identified five immediate priorities to support the medical imaging needs of our hospital and rapidly growing community: 

  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
  • Digital X-Ray
  • Fluoroscopy Machine
  • Gamma Camera
  • 3 NEW Ultrasound Machines 

The addition and installation of this new, state-of-the-art medical imaging equipment is projected to cost $10 million. Download our Case for Support. 

"Medical imaging has a central role in disease detection, management, and treatment. The tools and technologies available in medical imaging are continuously being updated and improved. Keeping up to date with the latest equipment at Peace Arch Hospital will help us provide the highest quality care possible for the people in our community."
Dr. Bippan Sangha, Radiologist, Peace Arch Hospital
