Regular, Flexible FTE

Cranbrook, BC

BC Cancer and the East Kootenay Regional Hospital are looking for a General Practitioner in Oncology to join our well established team. In BC we have some of the best cancer control results in the country, with access to more state‑of‑the‑art drug therapies than any other province. Our provincial structure is the key to our success and ample opportunity exists for collaboration across and within our tumour groups. In collaboration with BC Cancer, Interior Health's East Kootenay Regional Hospital in Cranbrook provides general outpatient medical oncology services.

Working with a specialized oncology team, you will participate exclusively in the care of oncology patients. As a GPO, you would participate in the treatment and follow up of patients after curative and palliative treatment planning, as well as potentially in clinical trials. There is a large and growing GPO network regionally and provincially, providing excellent opportunities for networking and education. You will report to the Head of Medical Oncology, BC Cancer-Kelowna for issues related to patient care, research, teaching and standards of care.

Applicants must be eligible for licensure in British Columbia and have Canadian certification (FRCP, FRCS or CCFP) at the time of appointment. You must also be suitable for appointment to the University of British Columbia. If you have no prior experience as a GPO, BC Cancer will support your training, involving both didactic virtual teaching, and in‑clinic patient‑related instruction.

is committed to reducing the incidence of cancer, reducing the mortality from cancer, and improving the quality of life of those living with cancer. BC Cancer provides a comprehensive cancer control program for the people of British Columbia in partnership with regional health authorities to deliver a range of cancer services, which include prevention, screening and early detection, diagnosis and treatment, research, education, supportive care, rehabilitation and palliative care.

is part of the Provincial Health Services Authority (PHSA) which plans, manages and evaluates specialty and province‑wide health care services across BC. PHSA embodies values that reflect a commitment to excellence. These include : Respect people

PHSA and BC Cancer are committed to employment equity and diversity and hires on the basis of merit. We welcome applications from all qualified individuals, including visible minority group members, women, Aboriginal persons, persons with disabilities, persons of any sexual orientation or gender identity. Citizens and permanent residents of Canada will be given priority. We recognize that our ability to provide the best care for our diverse patient populations relies on a rich diversity of skills, knowledge, background and experience, and value a safe, inclusive and welcoming environment.

Reconciliation is an ongoing process and a shared responsibility for all of us. The BC Governments’ unanimous passage of the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act was a significant step forward in this journey—one that all health authorities are expected to support as we work in cooperation with Indigenous Peoples to establish a clear and sustainable path to lasting reconciliation. True reconciliation will take time and ongoing commitment to work with Indigenous Peoples as they move toward self‑determination. Guiding these efforts Crown agencies must remain focused on creating opportunities that implement the Truth and Reconciliation Commission Mandate.
