All candidates must meet the Ontario criteria of eligibility.
There are academic half day workshops every year in ultrasound, and opportunity and support to learn US on our own, with machines available during our summer half days. Multiple staff use ultrasound in clinic for MSK procedures and botulinum toxin injections. You can also seek out opportunities for electives.
There is no one type of applicant that we are looking for. We are interested in having residents that are genuinely interested in physiatry who have a positive attitude, and are hardworking, accepting of feedback and keen to learn. They should also be easy to get along with and work well with others.
No! French-speaking is an asset, but in no way a requirement to live and perform training in Ottawa.
There is no denying that a move across the country can be difficult for anyone. But rest assured, our residents are very close to one another, and we are looking forward to adding two new members to the family! We make sure to touch base frequently, even if is physically distanced, as during the Covid-19 pandemic. Plus, the proximity to other major urban centres and to an international airport facilitates transport anywhere in the world!
Yes! There will be a new Civic Hospital campus built within the next few years with a planned move into a new state of the art rehabilitation facility. There will be both University based academic Physiatry opportunities as well as community hospital and even private office opportunities within the Ottawa region. Ottawa is a large city with various “pockets”, ensuring there are multiple practice opportunities available. Ottawa is also close in proximity to multiple smaller communities with hospitals, many of which are in need of physiatrists!
