Full job description

Practice Details:

We would like all Family Practitioners to know we are actively recruiting a 0.4 FTE to 1.0 FTE GPO to join Dr. Katie Forman in the GP Oncology Program at KBRH.

The selected physician will deliver a range of cancer services to patients with all possible tumor sites. They will help to manage oncology patients primarily in the outpatient setting but also support inpatient, indirect and remote care; this GPO will help care for patients throughout their entire treatment pathway including primary treatment through survivorship. The job would be to work in a rural community oncology clinic in a team based care model with supervision from both medical and radiation oncology in Kelowna or Vancouver area. Clinic currently has 2 GPOâ€™s and we are looking to expand our coverage and provide clinic stability and sustainability.
Responsibilities will include supervision of treatment using chemotherapy, immunotherapy and targeted therapy as well as patient education, supportive care, and end of life/palliative care planning.

The physician will provide ongoing surveillance and monitoring of patients that have completed their treatment to monitor for cancer recurrence or treatment related complications.

The GPO maintains regular communication with the specialist regarding the plan of care and practices collaboratively as a member of an interdisciplinary team, consulting with members of other health professions, as appropriate. The GPO acts as a resource to the oncology patientâ€™s primary care provider and other health care providers on issues related to the care of cancer patients (e.g., providing guidance during work-up of suspected cancer patients, addressing questions related to referral process, sharing information related to management of cancer patients, etc.).

The role is extremely interesting and profoundly meaningful to patients.
