A message from Doctors Manitoba President Dr. Randy Guzman

Happy National Physicians’ Day!

Today is all about recognizing the tremendous contributions doctors make to supporting the health and well-being of Manitobans. So let me be the first to say thank you for all that you do.

This year, our theme focuses on our diversity and expertise as physicians. The deep knowledge and medical expertise possessed by all physicians, and the personal diversity in our profession that is increasingly reflecting the communities we serve, makes the care we provide better. 

We have more than 3,500 doctors, trained here in Canada and in more than 100 countries around the world. You are all experts. Manitobans deserve the very best from our medical system, and that’s why doctors are pushing limits, expanding expertise, and learning more every day. 

While there’s still more work needed to ensure every physician, on every path, has the resources they need to succeed, we are making progress. Our diverse expertise is ensuring Manitobans get excellent care.

To all physicians, you are a source of inspiration and hope to your patients and their families, and a connection and support for your colleagues. From all of us at Doctors Manitoba, and on behalf of all Manitobans, thank you. Take a moment today to express your gratitude and appreciation to a physician colleague.

Diverse in expertise. United in care.
