Our interdisciplinary team includes nurse practitioners (NP), registered nurses, a registered dietitian, social workers, administrative professionals, and 14 family physicians.

We are a forward-thinking and enthusiastic group that values integrity, teamwork, and continuous learning. We're looking for team members who are not only passionate about providing excellent care, but who are also eager to contribute to a dynamic organization shaping the future of primary health care in our region.
