So far, so good – Coquitlam-area centre is going strong!

August 25, 2011

Our temporary assessment centre at Burquitlam Plaza opened on August 16 and so far residents have been keen to participate.  The location is very convenient – with free parking, a lab around the corner, and a Safeway nearby. 

Opening day festivities included Principal Investigator Dr. John Spinelli, Coquitlam-Burke Mountain MLA Douglas Horne, Project Director Dr. Marilyn Borugian, Burnaby-Lougheed MLA Harry Bloy, Coquitlam-Maillardville MLA Diane Thorne, BC Cancer Foundation CEO Doug Nelson, Port Moody-Coquitlam MLA Iain Black and study participant Paul McDonald.

We are booking appointments for these optional assessments – including bone density, blood pressure and body mass index measurements – through mid-September only.  Don’t miss out!  We have appointments available Mondays thru Saturdays, including evening appointments until 7:30 pm on some days.  For an appointment, call 604-675-8221 or sign up at  Join BC Generations Project. 

So far, almost 500 participants have booked appointments at the Burquitlam centre – located at 526 Clarke Road, Coquitlam.  We are hoping to sign up more than 1,000 new participants at this location.
