JOB SUMMARY Relocation allowance 25% to 20% overheads Clinic with multiple streams of income Multidisciplinary Environment: nurses, physio, mental health Develop your special Interest (MSK Injections, Botox, etc) Why This Opportunity Stands Out Excellent Compensation: 75/25 split, upgraded to 80/20 for monthly billings over $50,000. Full billing and administrative support included. Minimum income guaranteed for the first four months Contractor benefit options available for: health, dental, vision, and more Comprehensive Support: On-site nursing and MOA support (10+ years experience). Integrated OT/PT and mental health services. Flexible Schedule: 5-day workweek, optional Saturday half-day. Hybrid work flexibility for virtual consultations. Collegial, team-based atmosphere. Why This Location Stands Out Unique Area Highlights : This is a rare blend of big-city opportunity and natural beauty. With the country's largest urban park system, clear skies, and a welcoming, multicultural atmosphere, it offers the perfect mix of professional potential and family-friendly quality of life - ideal for physicians seeking both stability and an active, fulfilling lifestyle. Housing & Cost of Living : Housing here is among the most affordable of Canada's large urban centers - homes average 45-50 % lower in price than in Toronto, and rents are typically 30-35 % less. Amenities : Residents enjoy every urban convenience - extensive healthcare facilities, excellent hospitals, diverse retail and dining options, and a well-developed public transportation system connecting residential and business districts. Safety : Several residential neighborhoods surrounding the downtown core maintain lower crime severity than many comparable large Canadian cities, offering peace of mind for families and newcomers. Schools & Childcare : The education system emphasizes inclusion and academic excellence, with a wide range of public, private, bilingual and specialized programs. Transport : The area is served by a major international airport located roughly 30 minutes away, with direct connections to destinations across North America, Europe, and Asia. Recreational & Lifestyle Highlights : Nature and recreation are central to local life - there are over 150 km of interconnected river valley trails, hundreds of parks, and four distinct seasons encouraging outdoor activity year-round. Climate : Residents enjoy bright, sunny skies for most of the year - this city ranks among Canada's sunniest. Multiculturality : The community is richly diverse, with nearly 37 % of residents identifying as immigrants and more than 100 languages spoken. There is a welcoming network of cultural centers, mosques, temples, and churches, as well as strong newcomer support programs for settlement, language learning, and professional integration.
