Our Story
Welcome to Departure Bay Dental Clinic, where our mission is to provide superior dental care to our patients in a relaxed, friendly, and professional environment. Our commitment to excellence has been the cornerstone of our practice since 1968, and we are proud to have been serving the Nanaimo area for nearly five decades. Our goal is to help our patients comfortably establish and maintain optimal oral health by providing personalized care that addresses their unique needs and desires.
At Departure Bay Dental Clinic, we believe that our patients have the right to be educated about their oral health and make informed decisions. Our experienced doctors, Dr. Derek Chase and Dr. Rebecca Butchart, work hard to get to know our patients and individualize treatments based on their dental needs and financial comfort. We take pride in being a prevention-oriented, progressive family practice that has maintained a patient-centered focus, encouraging word-of-mouth referrals and keeping our practice growth minimal.
