ONE FINAL CHANCE to win free coffee and help support rural access to surgical care?!

We are contacting you on behalf of the ‘Family +1 Enhanced Surgical Skills: A Survey of Awareness and Opinions’ research study, a medical student led initiative with collaborators from the the University of Alberta, University of British Columbia, University of Calgary, and University of Saskatchewan. The goal of the Family +1 ESS study is to document the understanding and attitudes of medical students and family medicine residents towards Family Physicians with Enhanced Surgical Skills.
We hope that we can demonstrate that people care about Enhanced Surgical Skills for physicians practicing in rural areas and that this will drive funding for more training opportunities!

Please participate in this survey that will take a max of 15min but offer the opportunity to WIN FREE COFFEE!!!
