Dr. Katherine Miller
Family Physician
I have lived and worked in Campbell River since 2016, when I moved here from the Prairies to complete my residency training. I opened my practice in 2018, and continue to provide care in hospital, family practice clinic and long-term-care. My husband, sons and I enjoy all the many offerings of the Island – namely being outdoors. We love to be at the beach, and I am slowly growing my garden more and more each summer. I am grateful to be a part of this clinic team, and look forward to continuing to provide quality care to my patients.

I am a local to the area, having grown up on Quadra Island, before moving to Victoria for my undergraduate degree and medical school. I feel incredibly privileged to have had the opportunity to move home for my residency training and to continue working as a full-service family physician, providing clinic, hospital and maternity care in the community. My partner and I spend our free time taking full advantage of the beautiful outdoors, getting away to camp, bike and ski when we can.
