Join the RuralMed Discussion List
Connect with Canada’s rural medicine community
RuralMed is SRPC’s long-standing email discussion forum, connecting rural physicians across Canada to ask questions, share knowledge, seek advice, and support one another in the realities of rural practice. There’s no new platform to learn, no app to download, and no additional login to remember. RuralMed works through your existing email, making it easy to join the conversation from wherever you’re practising. Whether you’re looking for advice on a challenging clinical case, navigating a practice issue, discussing rural health policy, or simply connecting with colleagues who understand rural practice, RuralMed provides a trusted space for thoughtful discussion and shared experience.
