Job Summary

A Brief Overview

Reporting to the Manager of Operations, this position will assist the department with ensuring that key curricular objectives are met in support of students within Queen's Health Sciences new Family Medicine focused MD program at their new Lakeridge Health Campus.

The Queen's-Lakeridge Health Family Medicine MD program launches in September 2023.

The first of its kind in Canada, it will train MD students through to family medicine residency and will graduate practice-ready, community-focused physicians who are able to provide comprehensive care to people in southeastern Ontario.

Because of it's potential to address the deficit in family doctors that the Durham Region, and more broadly Canada, are experiencing, this is a high-profile initiative that other learning institutions will be monitoring and potentially mirroring in their own schools.
