The need for more family doctors has grown over the last 10 years, but with increased immigration, and now, a limit on the number of foreign students admitted to universities, the future is more unclear.
Federal data suggests Canada needs roughly 48,900 more family doctors by 2031.
How do we create more family medicine practices?
We unpack this very complex situation in episode 39 of The Bill Kelly Podcast with Dr. Jason Profetto, Director of Family Medicine and Chair of Clinical Skills and MD Admissions at McMaster University.
