From Ontario based physicians,

Dr. Jennifer Wilson and

Dr. Carlye Jensen

 

I read this book cover to cover in a single sitting. It made me laugh, cry, and deeply reflect—a powerful, moving tribute to the extraordinary work and humanity of rural family physicians.

Family Rooms is a beautiful reminder of why family medicine matters. Jennifer Wilson and Carlye Jensen capture the privilege, complexity, heartbreak, humour, and profound human connection at the heart of our profession. This is a book I hope every medical student, family medicine resident, practising family physician and health system leader will read.

These stories reveal the extraordinary within the everyday work of family medicine.
