While the family doctor shortage has had negative effects on patients, it's just been as hard for the family doctors doing business. Dr. Kristi Herrling from Sooke tells Anita Bathe how the province can improve the situation.
In episode 107, Dr. Jen Barna has a very helpful and informative conversation with the Charting Coach, Dr. Sarah Smith. Sarah is the founder of the Charting Champions Program, helping more than 150 physicians in the specific area of getting home with their charting done.
#ABdocs4Patients Fully vaccinated, as is my family. There has been enough ๐ heartbreak and Covid deaths in our community this year. Vaccines are safe and effective, please get your vaccines. #RuralLivesMatter
Happy World Family Doctor Day ๐๐๐
What a year! Celebrating our resourcefulness, creativity and perseverance through about a million changes and challenges!
This year it feels like a genuine Crown to wear ๐ฅณ๐ฅณ

Albertans have responded in a huge way to the start of Phase 3 of our vaccine rollout.
See precisely how the two age cohorts responded in real time below.
It was close, but the under-30s came out on top!
Gave a completely free talk to the Northern Ontario School of Medicine this week: Tips from the Charting Coach. Physicians if you struggle to get home with your charting done, check out the replay and you can work with me inside Charting Champions Program

Enjoying my time as an invited #ExecutiveFunctioning coach to the dedicated physicians working with @SarahSmithMD in her Charting Champions program.
I suspect many of us in #MedTwitter could benefit from greater charting efficiency - grateful to Sarah for serving her colleagues.

Iโve organized this all candidates forum or โManelโ (as some have called it) to help address some inequity.
Without a platform, the advantage goes to the candidates most known. @CMA_Docs needs to address systemic bias in its nomination and electoral process.
If your selection pool = ZERO women, your process is biased.
Step 1 - reactively halt the process and extend the call
Step 2 - proactively review process and identify systemic biases & barriers
ZERO #womeninmed is no longer acceptable
#genderequity yesterday!
@CMA_Docs
There are some who wish we would just give up our fight for healthcare, for health sector jobs, and for our broader health for Albertans.
Alberta will not surrender to the UCP who want to wreck our healthcare
We will defend AB's vital health interests. @Albertadoctors
There are some who wish we would just give up our fight for pipelines, for oil & gas jobs, and for our broader energy sector.
Alberta will not surrender to those who want to landlock our energy.
We will defend this province's vital economic interests, as we were elected to do.
