The Canadian Medical Association, MD Financial Management Inc., and Scotiabank proudly support The Well Doc Initiative, one of several initiatives that comprise their $115 million commitment to supporting the medical profession and advancing health in Canada. 

Our Stakeholders

The Well Doc Initiative works with various healthcare and academic stakeholders across Canada.

 

For example, we’ve partners with several provincial and/or territorial medical associations and physician health programs to measure wellness in physician groups, as well as to develop, train, launch, and sustain physician-to-physician peer support teams. We also have a stakeholder panel based in Alberta for the pilot work we did for Well Doc Alberta.
