Andrew Johns is an avid hockey player and all-around athlete. Over the years of playing hockey, surfing, cycling and swimming, Andrew developed osteoarthritis in his left hip.

In January 2013, Andrew underwent a full hip replacement surgery at UBC Hospital. During his post-operative stay at the hospital, he was cared for by an attentive team of health care professionals, including diligent nurses and doctors. In the three days he stayed after surgery, he experienced superior quality of care from the staff at UBC hospital.

Inspired by the medical and health care teams at VGH and UBC Hospital, Andrew decided to make a generous donation benefiting the VGH & UBC Hospital Foundation’s Best of Health Fund. This fund supports the hospitals’ needs for urgently-required equipment as well as the most promising initiatives towards innovative health care solutions.

Andrew and the team are proud to have the VGH & UBC Hospital Foundation as the recipients of this donation. He and his family applaud the hard work of all the professionals across BC’s health care facilities.

Help our medical teams provide BC’s Best adult care.
