internal medicine specialist
Terra Nova Medical Centre · Richmond, BC · $171,533 annually
Verdict
Terra Nova Medical Centre is a legitimate, established healthcare provider with strong web verification (businessMatch and locationMatch both confirmed). The posting contains detailed, professional job description aligned with NOC standards for internal medicine specialists, realistic salary, and comprehensive workplace accommodations. However, the request for physical resume submission by mail is a minor friction point for a modern medical role, though not uncommon in healthcare hiring. Overall, this is a low-risk posting with one minor concern.
