The NPS is a periodic survey of the medical profession in Canada. We examine what it means to be a doctor in Canada, including physician hours, health, training and job satisfaction.

There’s no doubt that the findings from the NPS have a significant impact on our ability to influence health care policy in Canada. The answers we receive help to bring clarity to important decisions that will affect physicians and their patients.

Dr. Anne Doig, Former President of the Canadian Medical Association.
