What if your next prescription wasn’t meant to be filled at the drugstore, but at a recreation facility?

Prescription to Get Active (RxTGA) empowers healthcare professionals to provide a written prescription for physical activity. Patients who receive one gain FREE trial access to participating recreation facilities, community programs, plus free ongoing options like short online exercise breaks, local trail maps and drop-in sport sessions, with no pressure to join and no judgment, just the freedom to explore, find what feels right and start safely and confidently.

Physical activity is part of preventive care and chronic disease management. RxTGA makes it practical and accessible.

If increasing your activity has been on your mind, consider asking your primary care provider about a Prescription to Get Active at your next appointment.

Women represent a significant proportion of family doctors across PCNs, reflecting the invaluable contributions they make to primary care, patients and communities.

We asked a member, “What advice would she give a young woman considering a career in medicine?”

"I would encourage any young woman considering medicine to pursue it. It’s a meaningful career and a privilege to practice. Just don’t let it become the only thing that defines you. Keep fostering your hobbies, relationships and life outside of medicine along the way. Stay well-rounded. This will serve both you and your patients as it will make you a happier person, and therefore a better doctor.” — Dr. Lama Mouneimne, PCN family doctor

On Canadian Women Physicians Day, we invite you to join us in recognizing and celebrating all women family doctors. We appreciate the care they provide, the relationships they build, and the way they show up for patients and teams.
