Physician Recruitment
Someone in your household gets sick or faces an emergency in the middle of the night. Your first thought: Oh no, will we have to wait hours in the emergency room? Why are wait times so long? Thousands of families in Kitchener-Waterloo are struggling to find a family doctor. Across Ontario, the physician shortage is growing. Here in our Region, approximately 1 in 5 residents—130,000 people—don’t have access to primary care. These are our friends, our neighbours, our loved ones. This isn’t just a hospital issue—it’s a community crisis. But this is a challenge we can overcome—together. Donate today and help us bring more doctors home to Waterloo Region. Together, we can create a healthier future for all.
