The Victoria Division of Family Practice connects family medicine-trained physicians to foster community, spark innovation, and lead improvements in the local health system. We respond to our members’ priorities by amplifying the physician voice and providing diverse services, supports, and programs. Sustainable ways to practice and support physician well-being are at the heart of our vision, “A community where family physicians thrive and lead excellent care for all”.

The Victoria Division has more than 830 members, including 416 general members. 80% of them are engaged on some level, from using Division services to leading our work.
