Starting point for the department's web site, and location for upcoming events and newsworthy items
Welcome!
The Department of Family Medicine at the University of Saskatchewan welcomes you to its website. We hope that the information and links on these pages will help you to become familiar with our Department and its programs.
Although this is a small province (around one million people) we have a richly diverse geography, population, and Residency Program. Our residents and undergraduate students experience hospital and community based education in urban, regional, rural, and remote primary care sites throughout the province.
The department has six divisions, including Saskatoon and Regina Urban Units, a rural program based in Prince Albert with planned expansion to Swift Current, Research division, Emergency Medicine division, and Northern Medical Services. Our energetic and dedicated full time faculty members (18-20) are globally funded and have a broad range of interests and backgrounds.
We are strongly supported in our mission by committed and personable staff members, and many community faculty members. In 2007 we developed a new Values, Vision, and Mission statement for the department. We hope you will refer to this statement, as it describes the essence of our work – our commitment to the primary health care of Saskatchewan communities and to the discipline of Family Medicine. At the same time, we developed a five-year Strategic Plan that guides and focuses our daily work. Please refer to this document as a reference and summary for all our current activities
Thank you for visiting our website. Please contact us if you would like to receive more information.
Dr. Keith Ogle, Chair, Department of Academic Family Medicine, University of Saskatchewan.
