Complaint Form

REGULATORY COMPLAINT FORM – FOR MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC

CHCPBC investigates and resolves complaints from members of the public about the capacity, competence, and conduct of the licensed health and care professionals the College regulates.

Check the CHCPBC Public Registry to confirm the person you have a complaint about is a CHCPBC licensee. If the person is licensed by the College, you may use this form to submit a complaint. If your complaint is about someone who is not a licensed health and care professional, please email complaints@chcpbc.org.

CHCPBC will not receive any information until you have filled in all mandatory fields below and clicked the “Submit” button. If you have a large amount of information that does not fit within this form, please email complaints@chcpbc.org.

You must provide your name and contact information when submitting your complaint. CHCPBC will not share your personal contact information (i.e., personal email address, phone number, and home address) with the licensee. For more information regarding CHCPBC’s collection, use, and disclosure of personal information, please see our Privacy Notice.

While complaints cannot be made anonymously, you may apply for an Identity Protection Order, which may keep your name and/or details about you confidential from the licensee you are complaining about, and/or other parties. For more information about Identity Protection Orders and how to apply for one, please see Things To Know Before You Submit A Regulatory Complaint.

If you have any questions about filling out the form and submitting a complaint, or need any assistance to do so, please email complaints@chcpbc.org or call CHCPBC at 604-742-6715.

If you are submitting a regulatory report concerning a licensed health and care professional under the Duties to Report Licensees division of the Health Professions and Occupations Act, please complete the Regulatory Report Form – For Licensees (PDF). For information about when regulatory reports are required, please see Submit a Regulatory Complaint or Report.
