Pleased to join the show this morning. @westernuFamMed commited to training as many #familydoctors as we can to support the region's #primarycare needs
Ontario needs family doctors. Lots of them. But a lot of new med school grads would rather be doing something else. So what's the answer? More w/ @FMChairChief at @SchulichMedDent at 8:10. #ldnont

When Dr. Lyons realized the lack of resources for pregnant women struggling with addiction, she set out to provide specialized, non-judgmental care for these patients - like Jodi, who credits Dr. Lyons as her biggest cheerleader.

Different approaches needed to take the stress off our system and providers - options available if we can help patients recognize the options to meet their needs
It’s not lack of access: Non-urgent Emergency Department use by patients with 24/7 access to primary care by Dr Scott McKay - take away: access to clinic wasn’t the issue! @westernuFamMed @NAPCRG
An amazing physician and person lost. Thanks, Peter, for your guidance and influence. lfpress.com/news/local-news/…
