About Doctors of BC
Doctors of BC is a voluntary association representing over 16,000 physicians, residents, and medical students in British Columbia. Founded in January 1900, we are committed to advocating for a healthcare system that meets the highest standards while ensuring our members experience professional satisfaction and fair economic reward. Our strategic vision includes promoting engagement and collaboration among physicians, leading to a healthy and effective healthcare environment.
As a key player in healthcare transformation, Doctors of BC focuses on improving healthcare access, promoting equity, and championing the importance of a culturally safe healthcare system. Our organization acknowledges the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of Indigenous communities, which underlines our commitment to providing culturally safe care for all patients. We actively engage with our members through committees, advocacy initiatives, and resources to ensure their voices are heard in political and public arenas, driving change for a healthier British Columbia for all.
