North Peace | Divisions of Family Practice

Welcome to the North Peace Division of Family Practice

We represent family physicians in Fort St. John and Hudson’s Hope, BC.

Together, the members work to improve patient access to local primary care, increase local physicians’ influence on health care delivery and policy, and provide professional support for physicians.

The Division gives local physicians an opportunity to work collaboratively with the Northern Health Authority, the GPSC, and the Ministry of Health to identify health care needs in the local community and develop solutions to meet those needs.

Come for the job, stay for the community!

The North Peace Division has recently been hit hard by a loss of family physicians. The Division’s latest recruitment tool – a video posted on its homepage promoting the benefits of practicing in the North Peace – takes a light-hearted approach.
