Description
Family Physician FHO Opportunity at EPICare Medical
Location: Waterdown, Ontario | Permanent | Full-Time or Part-Time
EPICare Medical is a modern, technology-forward clinic that's part of a 5-physician Family Health Organization (FHO). We are currently recruiting a family physician to join our second FHO site—an independently run, fully supported location in the vibrant and growing community of Waterdown (just minutes from Hamilton and Burlington).
This is an ideal opportunity for physicians seeking to build a stable, rewarding practice in a clinic that prioritizes administrative efficiency, clinical autonomy, and digital optimization.
Why Join EPICare?
- Technology-Driven Care: We leverage Avaros EMR alongside efficient digital workflows to minimize administrative tasks and enhance patient care delivery.
- Full Admin Support: Our experienced reception team and optional Physician Assistant support allow physicians to focus on clinical decision-making, not logistics.
- Private Offices While Working: Physicians have access to private offices during scheduled clinical hours to ensure comfort and focus without shared workspaces.
- Thoughtfully Designed Facility: The site includes 5 exam rooms, a welcoming reception and waiting area, kitchen/staff break space, an accessible patient restroom, and a separate restroom for staff.
- Flexible Scheduling: Physicians determine their clinic hours (virtual or in-person) and participate in shared after-hours coverage in accordance with FHO requirements.
- Free Onsite Parking: Convenient access for both staff and patients.
Responsibilities:
- Deliver comprehensive, patient-centered primary care across all ages
- Provide preventive care, chronic disease management, and health promotion
- Perform minor procedures (e.g., lesion removal, ear syringing, joint injections)
- Offer virtual care where appropriate using secure platforms
- Maintain up-to-date, accurate documentation within the EMR
- Collaborate with allied health providers to enhance care coordination
- Participate in quality improvement and community health initiatives
- Stay current through CME and evidence-based practice standards
Requirements:
- Certification from the College of Family Physicians of Canada (CFPC)
- Active registration with the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO)
- Strong interest in efficiency, digital tools, and optimizing the patient journey
- English proficiency required; additional languages are a valued asset
Compensation & Overhead:
- Blended capitation model through OHIP as part of FHO enrollment
- Income stabilization available for the first 12 months for eligible new grads or transitioning physicians
- Competitive overhead split covering full administrative and clinical support services
- Option to join the clinic's group benefits plan or arrange independent coverage through the OMA or preferred provider
Join a forward-looking clinic where innovation meets compassionate care. If you're seeking a place to grow your practice with the support of a high-functioning, digitally optimized team—we'd love to hear from you.
