With a heavy heart, we announce that Dr. Robin Love is stepping down after over a decade of dedicated service as Medical Lead, Geo 2 for Palliative & End of Life Care Program at
Nanaimo Regional Hospital (NRGH).
Dr. Love, a Nanaimo physician, began practising medicine in the Harbour City 26 years ago and became renown for his advocacy of palliative care. Dr. Love established a partnership between the Nanaimo Community Hospice and the palliative care unit at Bhaktapur Cancer Hospital in Nepal to teach and mentor medical staff and to pay for patients’ pain medication and nurse salaries. The program is one of several reasons why Dr. Love was recognized with an Award of Excellence in Medical Practice in May 2014 by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of B.C for his dedication to the communities he serves.
