Job Posting

Family Physician

Multiple opportunities: Full-Time, Part-Time, Locum, Temporary, or Permanent

Immediate need: 9-month temporary/locum coverage (start ASAP)

Rexdale Community Health Centre (RCHC) is a multi-service, community-based organization providing primary health care, health promotion, and community support services in North-West Etobicoke. We serve a diverse community of families, children, youth, adults, and seniors, and we’re committed to equity-driven, culturally safe care.

New Grad Friendly + “Try It Out” Locum Option

If you’re a new grad (or early-career physician) looking for a supportive place to start, RCHC is a great place to build confidence and breadth in comprehensive family medicine. If you prefer locums while you explore the right fit, we welcome that too — our temporary/locum opportunities (including an immediate 9-month mat leave coverage) are a great way to try CHC practice with strong supports and meaningful work.

You’ll practice within a team-based CHC model that recognizes the impact of the social determinants of health — and you’ll have access to interdisciplinary supports so you’re not managing complex care alone.

Why Join RCHC?

• Flexible options: Full-time, part-time, locum, temporary, or permanent (we can tailor a schedule that works)
• Immediate opening: 9-month temporary/locum coverage (start ASAP)
• Stable funding + competitive compensation
• HOOPP pension + comprehensive health/dental benefits (for eligible roles/FTE)
• Strong administrative and EMR support
• Mentorship and onboarding support for new grads, including team orientation and clinical workflow support
• Flexible scheduling / compressed schedules where feasible
• Interdisciplinary, team-based practice — strong collaboration with an inter-professional team
• Opportunities to explore areas of interest (e.g., equity-focused care, newcomer/refugee health, chronic disease, mental health, quality improvement, teaching)
• Care beyond the clinic: community partner sites and our Wheels to Wellness mobile health bus, helping reduce barriers and meet patients where they are

What your first week looks like:

• Shadowing and orientation with the team and clinic workflows
• Policies and practice expectations (CHC model, culturally safe care, equity lens)
• EMR training and support (including results/messages workflows)
• Clinic processes + introductions to key inter-professional supports and referral pathways

Responsibilities and Tasks

• Provide primary care to individuals and families, taking into account risk factors (environmental, socio-economic, psychological, and medical) in a manner which can be understood by the client and, when applicable, their families.
• Perform clinical duties including routine health and illness care, assessment and treatment planning, prescribing, and appropriate follow-up, while maintaining complete and accurate medical records.
• Provide on-call service when scheduled, make home visits when necessary, and keep other primary care providers informed regarding client issues arising when on-call.
• Work with the health care team to plan and evaluate health education, prevention, and screening programs based on identified health needs of clients and communities.
• Consult other primary health care providers in relation to medical opinions and information.
• Participate in chart reviews, case conferences, and continuous quality improvement activities.
• Provide leadership in overseeing patient cancer screening and appropriate MSSA indicators.
• Assist in planning and programming of centre health services, participate in committees, and share information about perceived health needs and issues in the community through client encounters and other community contacts.
• Facilitate the administration of the health centre by identifying areas where protocols/procedures are needed to improve client services or staff functioning, and participating in committee work and staff meetings.
• Maintain and develop professional competence through continuing education (e.g., peer interaction, literature review, conferences, courses).
• Undertake teaching and training of medical trainees within the health centre (optional/as applicable).
• Other duties as provided by the Director of Primary Health Care Services.

What We’re Looking For

• MD and Family Medicine residency from a recognized university
