At BCCFP, May is #FamilyDoctorMonth. Family physicians provide care across lifetimes – supporting patients through every stage of life. Their work creates a ripple effect that reaches far beyond a single visit.

To every family doctor: thank you. 💜

Thank you to BC family doctor Dr. Serena Verma, and the BC College of Family Physicians for a good discussion on ways we can continue to improve access to healthcare in BC.

Thank you for joining us @NinaKreigerBC! We are deeply grateful to have your support and recognition of the importance of family medicine. As @Josie_Osborne put it yesterday, ‘if primary care is the skeleton of health care, family medicine is the backbone’ 💜 #BCCFPAdvocacyDay

[Nina Krieger @NinaKriegerBC]

I am grateful to Dr. Verma & the BC College of Family Physicians @BCCFP. The longitudinal care provided by family physicians is a vital part of our health care system. Thank you to all the members of BCCFP for your care and dedication to the well-being of British Columbians.

Thank you @Josie_Osborne & all elected officials we had the privilege of meeting with during yesterday’s Day at the Legislature! Team-based care, reducing admin burdens and supporting rural FPs are key to ensuring more patients receive vital care from a trusted #familyphysician

[Josie Osborne 🇨🇦 @Josie_Osborne]

Thank you 🙏🏼 to the @BCCFP for energizing meetings today about strengthening primary care and family medicine across #BC by building more team-based care & reducing administrative burdens for family docs (like we’re doing right now with Bill 11 to eliminate sick notes!).

[BC College of Family Physicians @BCCFP]

[Dr. Joss Reimer @jossreimer]

Family docs spend between 10 to 19 hours a week on paperwork. This takes time away from what they’re trained to do: see patients. 

One of the easiest ways to reduce this #AdminBurden is eliminate mandatory sick notes.
