New Renal Facility at Surrey Memorial Hospital to Expand Kidney Care by 2026

Construction of Surrey Memorial Hospital’s new renal facility is moving forward, with the centre expected to open in the summer of 2026. Once complete, the facility will expand kidney-care services by 55 per cent and increase patient capacity to meet the rising demand for treatment in Surrey and neighbouring communities.

The project is part of a broader provincial strategy to strengthen health-care services across the region. Alongside the new renal unit, the Province’s plan includes establishing a medical school at Simon Fraser University, building a new hospital and BC Cancer Centre in Cloverdale, and expanding community-based health services.

The provincial government has committed $84 million toward the project, supported by a $1-million contribution from the Surrey Hospitals Foundation.

Bowinn Ma, Minister of Infrastructure, said the construction milestone reflects a commitment to the community. “Reaching this construction milestone is a promise kept to the Surrey community,” Ma said. Health Minister Josie Osborne added that the initiative is part of a broader effort to improve care across British Columbia.
