• A 3-year initial contract, with strong and consistent patient demand behind it from day one.
• Part of a group with 45 years of operating history, currently expanding to 30 clinics across Northern Ontario within 2 years.

Location Overview

Sault Ste Marie sits on the St. Marys River, directly across the international bridge from its twin city in Michigan. Bellevue Park runs along the waterfront, and the Hiawatha Highlands offer hiking, mountain biking and cross-country skiing minutes from town. It’s home to both Algoma University and Sault College, giving the city a genuine teaching and training culture to match the clinic’s own, alongside a lower cost of living than the GTA. Local public and Catholic school boards serve families throughout the city, and the surrounding Algoma region offers genuine year-round outdoor access.

Skills and Requirements

• Qualified as a Family Physician, registered with the GMC and UK Performers List, or eligible for registration with the College of Family Physicians of Canada.
• MRCGP or equivalent qualification.
• Comfortable in a high-volume, walk-in-only acute care environment, with efficient, focused consultations rather than longitudinal family practice.
• Happy to teach and supervise medical students, residents and physician assistants as part of day-to-day practice.
• Strong communication and teamwork skills.
