On Sunday, March 29, 2026, Global BC aired a clear and timely 2-minute-22-second segment titled “Virtual care platform sees increasing demand.” The report was expertly delivered by Darya Zargar, a respected multi-media journalist at Global BC.
In the piece, Darya highlighted the ongoing family doctor shortage, noting that 27% of British Columbians are still struggling to find a regular family physician, according to Doctors of BC. She explored how this gap is driving more residents toward convenient virtual care options for timely primary care.
This coverage was fantastic because:
- It accurately reflected the real struggles many British Columbians face every day.
- It brought much-needed attention to the growing role of virtual care as a practical and accessible solution.
- It was balanced, professional, and easy for viewers to understand.
At Avee Health, we believe virtual care plays a vital part in bridging the gap in BC’s healthcare system. Our platform offers MSP-covered, same-day virtual appointments with licensed BC physicians — from the comfort of home — for consultations, prescriptions, referrals, sick notes, and more.
We’re grateful to Darya Zargar and the entire Global BC team for producing this important story and helping raise awareness about innovative ways to improve access to care across the province.
