Job description

Join Avalon Health Clinic as a founding Geriatrician / Care of the Elderly Physician and help shape a modern community-based outpatient specialist practice in Saanich, Greater Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. This role is designed for outpatient consultation and longitudinal care; hospital privileges, inpatient coverage, and hospital call are not required. Avalon is being built as a multidisciplinary clinic where physicians, nurse practitioners, rehabilitation clinicians, allied health professionals, and administrative team members work together in one coordinated system. Our culture is grounded in thoughtful medicine, collegiality, professional respect, clear communication, and a shared commitment to making healthcare easier to navigate for both patients and clinicians. Designed from the ground up with physicians in mind, Avalon combines a fully integrated electronic medical record, centralized billing, dedicated administrative and MOA support, flexible scheduling, thoughtfully designed clinical space, and coordinated clinical pathways to reduce administrative burden and support high-quality patient care.

Geriatric medicine and care of the elderly will play a key role in Avalon's model, supporting older adults and their families through complex health needs in a collaborative outpatient setting. Areas of practice may include frailty, cognition and memory concerns, falls risk, mobility, polypharmacy, multimorbidity, caregiver support, functional decline, chronic disease management, and recovery planning after illness, surgery, injury, or hospitalization. You will work alongside family physicians, nurse practitioners, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, kinesiologists, counsellors, rehabilitation clinicians, and other specialists within one connected care experience. This team-based model supports timely consultation, interdisciplinary case discussions, shared care planning, one chart and care plan, and measurable quality improvement while preserving physician autonomy and professional flexibility. This position is based exclusively in our outpatient clinic and is not affiliated with the Health Authority. As such, hospital privileges are not included with this role.

Avalon will be located in Saanich, an established and highly livable community within Greater Victoria on southern Vancouver Island. Saanich offers the balance many physicians and families look for: access to the amenities of the British Columbia capital region, proximity to downtown Victoria, universities, restaurants, arts and culture, and easy connections to parks, trails, beaches, cycling routes, oceanfront, and year-round outdoor recreation. This is an opportunity to build a meaningful outpatient geriatrics practice in a collaborative, forward-thinking clinic while living and working in one of Canada's most desirable coastal regions.

Overhead: 25%
