Happy Doctor’s Day to the incredible physicians serving Chatham-Kent!

Today, we celebrate the doctors who care for our families, support our communities, and help make Chatham-Kent a healthier place to call home.

Your dedication, compassion, and commitment to patient care do not go unnoticed. Thank you for the long hours, the difficult decisions, and the kindness you bring to every patient interaction.

We’re proud to work alongside our healthcare partners at Chatham-Kent Health Alliance, Chatham Kent Family Health Team, Thamesview Family Health Team, Tilbury District Family Health Team, and Chatham-Kent Community Health Centres, whose continued collaboration helps strengthen care across our community.

We had a great time at the SRPC Rural and Remote Medicine Conference connecting with medical learners and physicians from across the country!

Our focus was sharing opportunities in rural family medicine in Chatham-Kent and having meaningful conversations about what practicing in a supportive, community-driven environment can look like.

It was especially exciting to see such strong representation from Chatham-Kent, and to celebrate Dr. Lindsey Sutherland on receiving the Rural Service Award—a true reflection of the incredible care happening in our community.

Recruitment is working — but the work isn’t done.

This week, we shared our latest Physician Recruitment & Retention Report with Council, outlining:
✔️ New physicians welcomed
✔️ Impact of municipal incentives
✔️ Current patient attachment numbers
✔️ What’s needed to meet future demand

As retirements approach and demand grows, continuing to recruit new physicians remains critical to protecting access and avoiding strain on existing providers.
