Family Doctors are highly valued. Family doctors provide 49% of hospital-based assessments, 47% of all psychotherapy and counselling services, 47% of surgical assistance and 34% of obstetric deliveries. Let’s celebrate family doctors and the important work they do. #WFDD2024

[ITPAC @ITPAC_CA]

Yes, Family Doctors are a necessity. Many Canadian do not have access to them. Many internationally Trained Doctors (ITPs) are waiting to get into residency after passing required exams. It is time to increase the residency opportunities for ITPs. @ONThealth @cpso_ca @WESCanada

The care family doctors provide is essential. Family doctors know their patients and their health histories. They help patients navigate their care through every step and every stage of life.  Family doctors are not a luxury – they are a necessity. #WorldFamilyDoctorDay
