Long thread ahead! Today, Ontario is learning through media of two more family doctors leaving the profession. Many others have already chosen to do so. 👉Toronto toronto.citynews.ca/2024/02/14/pap… 👉 Ottawa ottawacitizen.com/news/local-new… 🧵

The Ontario government must recognize the essential role of family doctors. The care and expertise they provide cannot be replaced, and compensation should reflect their true value to patients and the health system. See OCFP's statement:ontariofamilyphysicians.ca/news/ocfp-stat…

There are 2.3 M Ontarians without a family doc & 1 in 4 are projected to be without one by 2026. The Ontario government must recognize the essential role of family docs & provide them with compensation that reflects their true value to the health system. bit.ly/4bahB0F

With 2.3M Ontarians without a family doctor, we continue to advocate for urgent changes. At the same time, we're highlighting the critical role of family docs. That's why we're asking patients to share what their family doctor means to them: ontariofamilyphysicians.ca/nominate

The list of Ontarians without a family doctor continues to grow. There are now 2.5M Ontarians without a family doctor. System-wide issues are stretching family doctors thin, but we can turn this around with urgent action from government. bit.ly/3LlLdgo
