Overview

Our dedication is to shape the leaders and educators of the future, and our curriculum is developed with that in mind. In addition, we are focused on work-life balance, with trainees receiving an annual well-being stipend of $1800. Also on offer are access to library resources, wellness services, free parking, and the housestaff diversity council. The addition of further programs has led to development of the resident auxilliary - a resource to welcome trainees and their families to the region.
