Practice Details:
This is an exciting opportunity to design your own locum position with flexible dates! It would consist of a combination of GP Anaesthesia and office based family practice with the option to pick up ER shifts if desired.
The GP anesthesia practice requires that you take a minimum of one fourth of the elective anesthesia slates and the on-call. We have a mixture of endoscopy, visiting orthopedics and general surgery slates and pediatric dental anaesthesia.
The family practice component would be at the Sparling East Medical Centre where you will work alongside 8 other physicians on Fernie's iconic main street. The other GPAs are all based at Sparling East simplifying sharing of pre-op anaesthesia consults.
Each physician at Sparling East sets their own clinic schedule balancing it with their hospital work. Our clinic offers friendly helpful MOAs, a chronic disease management nurse, a social worker, an occupational therapist and a social worker. Our patient population is diverse with a mixture of young families, coal industry employees, seniors and seasonal visitors. We value quality patient care as well as quality of life.
