Join CFP Editor Dr. Nick Pimlott and Associate Editor Dr. David Ponka as they explore the power and the value of seeing patients at home with Dr. Sarah Newbery from Marathon, Ontario. In addition, they explore Dr. Newbery’s journey to become a family physician and how she and her colleagues have created a medical community in Marathon that has been socially accountable and able to provide continuity of care for the community for over three decades. Dr. Newbery is the author of an essay in the September issue of the journal entitled “Heart of patient-centred care is at home” about Dr. Ian McWhinney’s 7th principle that “The family physician sees patients at the office, at home and in the hospital”. Dr. Newbery’s essay can be found here: https://www.cfp.ca/content/cfp/72/9/527.full.pdf.
