COVID-19 is helping transform Family Medicine

Hello all,

Amidst a global pandemic, we continue to help and heal our patients in Nanaimo. We have switched to telephone and/or virtual visits. This can occur 85% of the time with few face to face encounters in office to help protect patients and staff from COVID-19 spread (can you say #PhysicalDistancing?).

This innovation alone is a game changer and is helping transform Family Medicine for the better!

From a Mental Health perspective, our reach to those patients suffering from depression, anxiety and addictions has been noteworthy – counselling and treatments are started in a more thoughtful and proactive manner (#RelationshipsHeal)!

We will continue to update as we go along and remember: you are not alone and we are all in this together.

Peace!
