Karaoke, free childcare, kids activities, and a BBQ set the stage for new Prince George physicians to have a fun and casual afternoon at the park among friends and colleagues.
On August 10, 2019, the Prince George Division of Family Practice and Northern Health partnered to host another successful physician social at Lheidli T’enneh Memorial Park in Prince George, B.C. This event welcomed new physicians to Prince George, and brought them together with existing physicians, residents, students, their families, and Northern Health staff.
These socials are great opportunities to socialize with colleagues and their families outside of the workplace, and for physicians to gain a better understanding of the work that other physicians in the community are doing. The casual, family-friendly atmosphere creates an ideal space for physicians to break down barriers and strengthen relationships between students, residents, physicians, and Northern Health.
This is the third physician social event since they started in 2018. The first was a family-friendly event hosted at the Exploration Place, and the second was an evening out at CrossRoads Brewery, complete with free childcare, fantastic food, and great company.
Northern Health looks forward to continuing to work together with the Prince George Division of Family Practice to integrate new physicians into the fold of their community and fostering a deeper sense of togetherness in Prince George for every physician and their families.
