Caring Spirits: Dr. Perchinksy and the CVU

Royal Jubilee Hospital has one of the top-rated Cardiac programs in Canada, so it’s no surprise that Dr. Michael Perchinsky and the Cardiovascular Unit have received a Caring Spirit award! Our Cardiac teams perform 3-5 surgeries every day on patients from all over Vancouver Island.

A former patient recently decided to honour Dr. Perchinksy with a Caring Spirit donation towards new cardiac equipment for Royal Jubilee. Because of the medical equipment available today, our doctors and nurses can save lives they may not have been able to save just a few years ago.

Please share to help acknowledge the exceptional work of our hospital teams. We want the entire community to hear about the incredible impact our caregivers have at Royal Jubilee and Victoria General hospitals.
