The Physician Health Program believes that all physicians should establish a long-term, trusting relationship with a family physician (FP). But as we all know, FPs are in short supply. That's why it's important that you make this request for attachment only when you are ready to see it through to an actual appointment with a FP. If we succeed in matching you to a FP, but you do not attend an appointment with that person within three weeks of receiving notice of the match, your relationship is not established. Here's what we will do in that case:
Please also note that this service is available to physicians and trainees only, and not to their family members. However, once you as a physician or trainee have established a relationship with your FP, you can ask about the possibility of accepting your family members as patients.
Finally, be advised that in certain cases the Physician Health Program partners with local Divisions of Family Practice who perform the task of matching FPs to physician-patients. Only your gender, year of birth and any reasons for the urgency of your request are transmitted to the partner organization. Your name and other identifying information are not transmitted. However, your name and other identifying information will be provided to any FP who indicates a willingness to accept you as a patient.
