Family Practitioner/General Practitioner

Role and Facility Information

A full-time physician is required as soon as possible for a well-established clinic in beautiful Port Alberni, BC. The current physician is seeking 1 or 2 physicians to take over his patient panel so that he can transition into a well-deserved retirement.

This is a turnkey opportunity to lead your own independent practice while benefiting from the infrastructure of a vibrant medical hub. You will operate your own clinic within a professional building shared by three other independent family physicians, fostering a collegial atmosphere.

The building features an on-site LifeLabs and an after-hours clinic, providing maximum convenience for your patients.

Beyond the clinic, you have the flexibility to pursue acute Care at West Coast General Hospital, Addictions Medicine, ER, obstetrics, Palliative Care, or Long-Term Care.
