Family physicians: Neil’s Harbour

Our small, community hospital in Neils Harbour, along the Cabot Trail in Cape Breton, is urgently seeking full or part-time physicians to join our practice. Although traditionally our physicians do a mixture of clinic, ER (including after hours home-call), and hospitalist medicine, we are open to exploring alternative arrangements. We also accept short or long-term locums. Housing is provided for locums or new recruits, including a fully furnished 3-bedroom home near the hospital, as well as support to find employment for spouses. We are surrounded by stunning natural beauty – mountains, oceans, beaches – located around 2.5 hours from Sydney. Our population is spread out over several communities from Ingonish to Meat Cove, and grounded in fishing and tourism, 

We are family-friendly, pet-friendly, and would be an ideal location for someone interested in the outdoors, hiking, fishing, boating, skiing, snowmobiling, or simply a quieter, simpler lifestyle away from the hustle-bustle of the city. For someone more financially motivated, there is the opportunity to take on additional call shifts. We value having a friendly and collaborative work environment, while also respecting the importance of time for family and community.
