What is the Red Carpet Program?
The Ridge Meadows Division of Family Practice physicians and community partners have collaborated to establish a Red Carpet Program to welcome prospective family physicians to the community.
Prospective physicians can expect to be welcomed with open arms by Division staff and GP colleagues who will pick you up from the airport, tour you through the hospital, organize welcome luncheons with community leaders, and wine and dine you in their own homes.
Additionally, the following community partners and local businesses are committed to providing you with outstanding service and getting you and your family settled in the community as quickly as possible. Please give them a call today.
