Original job description

Role and Facility Information

Location: We are located in the beautiful Lower Mission, just a short walk to Bluebird Beach

Park and South Beach Access. Our clinic shares a building with a range of healthcare services,

including a dentist, orthodontist, urologist, pharmacy, and Dynacare Medical Laboratory. This

convenient setup benefits our patients immensely.

Electronic Medical Record: Bluebird Medical Clinic uses IntraHealth Profile and relies on

electronic faxing and messaging to streamline communication and patient care. We are

committed to becoming a completely paperless clinic, and have made significant strides to

achieve this feat.

Clinic Website: Our user-friendly website offers patients the convenience of booking

appointments and submitting forms online, including GAD-7, PHQ-9, and the Adult ADHD

self-screening tool. Patients can stay informed with the latest clinic updates, office policies, and

pricing for services not covered by MSP. Our website also features a comprehensive collection

of patient resources and provides an alternative way to contact our Medical Office Assistants.

Medical Office Assistants: We are proud to have a dedicated team of MOAs who are friendly,

efficient and professional. They play a key role in ensuring our clinic runs smoothly.

Teamwork: Bluebird Medical Clinic has 2 full time physicians and 1 part time physician.

Physicians have developed a collaborative scheduling system to ensure continuous care for our

patients. When necessary, a physician will help clinic patients if their regular family physician is

not available. We have also agreed to cover each other’s vacation time when a locum physician

is not available, helping maintain consistent and reliable care for our patients.

Evidence Based Medicine: Our affiliation with UBC as a teaching clinic for Family Medicine

residents and Medical Students keeps us up-to-date with the fast evolving principles of modern

medicine. This commitment to education ensures our approach reflects the current standard

practices.

Patient Centred Approach: We pride ourselves in involving our patients in their care. By

fostering open communication and shared-decision making, we ensure our patients feel heard,

respected, and empowered in their healthcare.

Comprehensive Medical Care: We provide care for patients of all ages, from newborns to

elderly. Additionally, some of our physicians continue providing care for patients after they

transition to long-term care facilities.

Passing the Torch: Our academic affiliation with UBC creates an optimal space for training new

family physicians.
