Royal Columbian Hospital is a 450-bed acute care regional hospital serving the communities of New Westminster, Coquitlam, Port Moody, and Port Coquitlam. It is the tertiary referral centre for the Lower Mainland east of the Vancouver city border.

Eagle Ridge Hospital is a 90-bed hospital located in Port Moody, BC. It is part of the Fraser Health Authority and serves the rapidly growing TriCities area. Eagle Ridge Hospital has a busy emergency department with over 50,000 patient visits per year, and is staffed with the same group of doctors who work at the Royal Columbian Hospital.
