Family Physician - Obstetrics/Gynecology

Position Summary

We are looking for a long-term rotating locum for our clinic, a general family practice plus maternity care consisting of 8 physicians, each working 0.5 FTE in clinic and telehealth time (i.e., 4 full-time physician equivalents in clinic). Each physician works within a dyad, with the in-clinic schedule mirroring that of their practice partner. For the past 3 years we have had a rotating locum who rotates between practices, covering each doctor for 1-2 weeks at a time (about 2.5 clinic days per week). Time off for the locum is worked into the schedule as needed. We are looking for a replacement for our long-term locum who has retired.

We do a substantial amount of maternity care and hospital deliveries at Kelowna General Hospital. A high level of comfort with clinical prenatal visits is essential. Call coverage for intrapartum care in the hospital is not essential but an asset, and a regular call shift (approximately 1 in 8) would be available.
