Considering a move to Canada as a doctor?

What could you earn? How much does housing cost? What are the schools like? And which part of Canada would suit you and your family?

These are some of the questions we regularly hear from doctors exploring opportunities in Canada.

We've just published our new Doctors Guide to Living and Working in Canada, a free 15-page guide designed to help internationally trained physicians understand what life in Canada could actually look like.

Inside, we cover:

Earnings and working arrangements for Family Physicians and medical specialists.

Housing and cost of living, including real rental comparisons.

Life in Ontario, Alberta, British Columbia and Saskatchewan.

Schools, childcare and family life.

Healthcare, outdoor activities and lifestyle, along with the practicalities of relocating.

Whether you're actively considering a move or simply curious about what Canada could offer, it's a great place to start.

It’s easy to look at a 75/25 split and assume it’s the better deal.

But in reality, a clinic with strong patient demand, good support and the right billing model can leave you in a better position than one offering a higher headline percentage.

The split matters, but it’s only one part of the picture.

If the right physician still hasn’t applied, it may be time to stop waiting and start searching.

Family Physicians wanted in Calgary, Alberta

If Calgary has been on your radar, this is one worth looking at.

We are working with a growing clinic group that is expanding in Calgary and looking to bring in experienced Family Physicians as the new location builds its team.

There is strong patient demand, good support around onboarding and licensing, and the earning potential can be very attractive, with the right physician capable of earning circa $650,000 CAD depending on activity and working pattern.

Calgary also gives you a lot outside of work. You have the Rockies on your doorstep, a major international city, plenty of space, and a very different lifestyle to what many UK doctors are used to.

We are keen to speak with UK-trained GPs, as well as other Family Physicians who may have a realistic route to licensing in Alberta.

You do not need to have your CPSA registration completed before getting in touch.

If you are considering Canada and want to understand what this role could look like, take a look at the full opportunity below.

Diagnostic Radiologist considering Canada?

We are recruiting for a specialist multidisciplinary clinic in Edmonton, Alberta, with earning potential of $700,000+ CAD.

This is a community-based position rather than a conventional hospital-only role, working closely with specialists across Neurology, Rheumatology, PM&R, Sports Medicine, Orthopaedics and Pain Medicine.

Importantly, this isn't limited to Radiologists already practising in Canada.

We can consider suitably qualified Diagnostic Radiologists trained in countries including the UK, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, United States, Hong Kong and Singapore, subject to meeting Alberta's licensing requirements.

For internationally trained Radiologists considering Alberta, Merrick Global Talent can also help you understand the CPSA pathway and the practical steps involved in making the move.

🇿🇦 South African specialists may have a far more direct route to practising in Alberta than many realise.

Alberta’s Approved Jurisdiction Route includes a defined list of South African specialties and subspecialties, with eligible doctors potentially able to move towards full independent registration without a Practice Readiness Assessment.

The key is not simply being South African or holding a specialist title. Your exact training, certification, HPCSA registration and specialty all need to align with CPSA’s requirements.

We have broken down:

• Which specialties are approved
• Which subspecialties are included
• The qualifications and registrations required
• The training dates that apply
• Why South African Family Medicine is treated differently
• How the Alberta application process works
