Premier Campbell Says B.C. Will Graduate Even More Doctors

Premier Gordon Campbell announced today that a BC Liberal government will create an additional 128 doctor spaces across the province – 32 at the University of Northern BC, 32 at the University of Victoria, and 64 more at the University of British Columbia.

“Most medical school graduates end up practicing close to where they have trained. Our new medical schools and new training spaces in Prince George, in Victoria, and in Kelowna are going to have long-lasting benefits for the North, for the Island, for the Interior, and for the entire province,” said Campbell. “We are making real progress in our health care system. We are building on the first-rate system that already exists and we are going to make sure the tools are there to make the system even stronger.” [more]
