Work continues to bring more doctors to the province


Over 1500 physicians are practising in this province including 736 family practitioners and 801 specialists.
That from the Department of Health.
There are 169 more doctors practising in the province than there were in October 2006.


Health Minister Mary Schryer tells us her department is committed to fostering an environment of recruitment and retention of physicians in all regions of the province.
A committee that will involve representatives from key organizations to help recruit doctors will be established this spring.
