Dr Josh Greggain becomes next president-elect

Dr Josh Greggain has been acclaimed as president-elect for the 2022 year in the recent Doctors of BC election.

For over 15 years, Dr Greggain has been a family physician caring for rural, Indigenous, and under-served populations. He became involved with Doctors of BC in 2020 as a member of the Joint Standing Committee of Rural Issues, and previous to that held a number of medical leadership roles including: medical director at the Hope Medical Centre and the Fraser Canyon Clinic, site medical director at Fraser Canyon Hospital, and board member and chairperson of the Chilliwack Division of Family Practice. He was also instrumental in the development of the House of Sexwna7m, an Indigenous-led primary care outreach clinic in Anderson Creek.

“Becoming president-elect of Doctors of BC is an honour. My passion is to inspire those around me so that we may all benefit: the profession, the association, and the communities and patients that we serve. As I have learned from our Indigenous elders, my responsibility as spokesperson isn’t to speak my own voice but to listen, to understand, and to reflect the voices of the people for whom I represent.”

Dr Greggain steps into his role as president-elect on January 1^st, at which time current President-Elect, Dr Ramneek Dosanjh, will step into her role as president.

Congratulations Dr Greggain.
