The LOCVM team is proud to share that our Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Joyce Cheung, was featured by the Ontario College of Family Physicians (OCFP) in recognition of World Family Doctor Day.
Family physicians are at the center of patient care and community health. Their work extends far beyond appointments and clinic walls: supporting continuity, trust, advocacy, prevention, and long-term relationships that shape healthier communities across Canada.
At LOCVM, we see both the value and the complexity of modern family practice every day. Many physicians are balancing patient care alongside administrative responsibilities, family life, and the growing pressures facing healthcare today. That’s why flexibility, autonomy, and sustainable ways of practicing medicine matter.
Dr. Joyce Cheung’s work as a practicing family physician and Chief Medical Officer at LOCVM reflects a broader commitment to building physician-centered solutions that better support how doctors actually work and live.
We’re grateful to the OCFP for recognizing the contributions of family physicians across Ontario and for continuing important conversations around the future of primary care.
