About the Canadian Conference on Physician Health 
Creating a stronger health care system – where both physicians and patients trust in care.

The Canadian Conference on Physician Health (CCPH) is a biennial conference that showcases both research and innovative initiatives related to improving physicians’ health and wellness within the medical training and practice environment. We provide a forum for learners, physicians, researchers, educators, administrators and others to network and promote collaboration within the community.

In 2025, CCPH welcomes participants both in-person in Vancouver and virtually to attend from Oct. 17-18. Our focus will be conversations on how we can build trust in care, co-create a health system where physicians feel supported and strengthen patient-physician relationships, while reimagining the overall culture of medicine. 

Together, we can build connections, influence decisions and take collective action.

At the conclusion of the conference, participants will be able to:

• Explore evidence-based strategies that enhance physical and psychological wellness, foster resilience and prevent burnout.
• Assess practice optimization and system-level processes that promote physical, psychological, and culturally safe environments for physicians and learners.
