A public dialogue about the science and politics of access to family doctors in Montreal
FY 2011-12
Summary
Can't find a family doctor in Montreal? One quarter of Quebec's population doesn't have a family doctor (up to 40% on the island of Montreal). In the rest of Canada, this number is closer to 15%. What do we know about the science behind the access problem and what are some potential solutions? The experts will discuss what we know about the problem, the research being done to identify issues and answers, and some ideas here and elsewhere that might help solve this problem. Ask questions, contribute your own ideas or just come to listen. Join us for some food drink and good conversation.
