Beyond the Patient
For many physicians, their role as a health care provider is about much more than the patient sitting in front of them; it's about looking "Beyond the Patient," to understanding and respecting people (and patents) in the context of their families, homes, communities and cultures.
Whether within their own communities, cities, countries or on the other side of the world, Alberta's physicians volunteer their time and effort to help improve the health and lives of populations everywhere.
AMA Youth Run Club
Through the AMA Youth Run Club, a partnership of the AMA and Ever Active Schools, physicians, medical students and residents can meet with the children, teachers and families of your communities to encourage physical activity and healthful living.
Community Connections
The AMA knows that many of Alberta's physicians support and participate in projects to help build healthier, stronger communities in Canada and throughout the world. Through Community Connections, we want to celebrate and share the inspiring stories of these dedicated physicians.
