[Colwood Family Practice] Family Physician – Permanent Locum
Colwood Family Practice | Colwood BC
Full-Time or Part-Time | Flexible Schedule | Start ASAP
Find flexibility without giving up being part of a team.
Colwood Family Practice, operated by the South Island Primary Care Society, is looking for family physicians interested in joining our team as permanent locums in Colwood, BC.
This is an ideal opportunity for physicians who want the flexibility of locum practice while still having the stability, relationships, and support that come from being part of an established clinic team.
Whether you are looking for a few regular days each month, a part-time schedule, or a full-time locum practice, we are happy to build an arrangement around the way you want to work.
The Opportunity
Our permanent locums provide planned coverage across our family practices, helping our physicians take vacation, manage leaves, reduce their schedules when needed, and maintain a healthier work-life balance.
Rather than continually searching for individual short-term locum opportunities, you can become part of the Goldstream team and work within a consistent, supported clinic environment.
What we offer:
- Full-time or part-time opportunities
- Flexible scheduling and workflow
- Short- and longer-term physician coverage
- Experienced MOA support
- Dedicated clinic coordination and management
- Established family practices and patient panels
- Opportunities for teaching and involvement in a PCN environment
- The ability to explore longer-term or permanent practice opportunities within the broader South Island Primary Care Society clinic network
Colwoods current posting identifies a fixed locum overhead of $375 per day, or $7,500 per month for full-time practice.
Why Colwood?
Our goal is simple: make it easier for physicians to practice medicine.
Our administrative and operational teams manage the day-to-day clinic environment so physicians can focus on their patients. Locums are not treated as temporary additions to the clinic—they are an important part of our physician team and an important part of creating sustainable longitudinal family practice.
For physicians considering settling on South Vancouver Island, locuming with us is also a great way to get to know our clinics, physicians, teams, and communities before deciding where you may ultimately want to practice.
Qualifications
Applicants should be eligible for appropriate licensure with the College of Physicians and Surgeons of British Columbia (CPSBC). The current posting also indicates that internationally trained physicians may be considered and that provisional licensure may be an option where applicable.
Start Date: As soon as possible
Location: Colwood Family Practice
