The Creston Valley is a great place to practice medicine. Centrally located within the Kootenays, Creston has a unique combination of favourable factors that make it special. The physicians, and other health professionals who live here love the relaxed pace of life, the beauty of the agricultural landscape, the friendly people, the temperate climate, and the limitless opportunities for outdoor recreation. As the elected officials for the Regional District of Central Kootenay, the Town of Creston and the Chief & Council of the Lower Kootenay Band (Yaqan Nukiy), we welcome you to consider the Creston Valley. We recognize that health care is an integral part of a strong and thriving community. We are committed to doing what we can to support stable access to health care for our citizens. In the past few years, we have established an award winning, community-based physician recruitment program in the Creston Valley.
