As I write to you today, we have recently held our annual Quebec Career Day, where some 900 of you had the chance to meet with representatives of healthcare establishments and other clinical facilities in the Quebec healthcare system. This yearly medical employment fair is a key event for you, but also for the facilities seeking new recruits to meet their needs. Thank you to the resident doctors who attended. To the others, I say, “be there next year!”

The Fédération des médecins omnipraticiens du Québec (FMOQ) now gives you access to the electronic version of its monthly publication, Le Médecin du Québec.

Family medicine residents may access it without charge on Apple Store or Google Play. A tablet version is also available. Just create an account on the FMOQ website to access it. 

Residents in other specialties may access the current and previous Internet issues on their website.

The 12th Interdisciplinary Training Days of the FMSQ will be held November 15-16, 2019 at the Quebec City Convention Centre (Centre des congrès de Québec).
