Peter Walford Plans to Sell Dental Bus Practice

business · Denman and Hornby Islands

Peter Walford, owner and operator of the Denman and Hornby Islands dental bus, is looking to sell his practice. The dental bus has provided mobile dental services for over three decades. Walford has a long history in dentistry and boat building and has contributed significantly to dental care on the islands.

This is the archive, not the newspaper. Between 2018 and 2026 this site compiled these items automatically from public community sources — chiefly The Islands Grapevine, regional news feeds and community groups. They were not written by a reporter and were not held to the standards this publication now applies. The archive is kept because it is a useful dated record of what happened on Denman, and it is labelled because pretending otherwise would be the first thing we would tell you not to trust. Current reporting is at The Denman Firestarter.
