Amazing to see so many familiar uOttawa | Faculté de médecine, Faculty of Medicine faces - past and present. Also inspiring to see so many IMG/ITP friends on the team. Not only do IMGs/ITPs bring deserved access to care for patients across Canada, but a case example of how they enrich our physician community.

Challenges with anesthesia human resources aren't only isolated to Ontario’s smaller or northern communities. As Dr. Viren Naik explains in our new interview with him, any hospital, even large, academic centres, can run into staffing shortages: OntariosAnesthesiologists.ca/oa-blog
