Students and Residents

As rural physicians and founding members of the Society of Rural Physicians of Canada we know that providing a truly rural elective to students and residents will make you aware of the rewards of being a rural physician in Canada. It will also make you aware of the great need for rural physicians. We have been rural preceptors for the last fifteen years and have been officially affiliated with McGill University, the University of Alberta and the University of British Columbia. Students and residents come from Canadian medical schools, as well as from medical schools in Europe, Argentina and New Zealand. Approximately 120 residents and more than 70 students rotated through our program over the last 15 years. Many of our students and residents return as locums or full-time physicians to Inuvik, many others go on to work in other rural areas in Canada and the world. More information can be found on the webpage Students, Main Page This elective can be arranged by contacting physician recruiter, Tracey Romkey. Telephone: (867) 777 8108. E mail address: tracey_romkey@gov.nt.ca

Chinese food in the arctic.

The Back Room is one of our favourite places for an informal get together.

In this picture (left to right): resident Ana Stratis, Inuvik doc Tarun Shaha, locums Dennis Boettger and wife Betty, locums Kiran Nayar and Jill Kelly.

Returning locum, Andre van Heerden, celebrated his birthday - happy that his wife, Gerda could take time off to enjoy the north with him.
