We are pleased to share that Dr. Anthony Sanfilippo, a valued member of the Fenix Alma Solutions Inc. Advisory Board, has published a timely and important book, The Doctors We Need: Imagining a New Path for Physician Recruitment, Training, and Support.
In this work, Dr. Sanfilippo brings more than four decades of experience as a cardiologist, educator, and senior academic leader to one of the most pressing challenges facing healthcare in Canada: the growing shortage of family physicians. Despite significant investments in medical education, millions of Canadians remain without access to primary care. Dr. Sanfilippo examines how legacy recruitment and training models have contributed to this reality, and he offers thoughtful, practical solutions for reform.
The book explores issues at the intersection of medical education, societal expectations, and healthcare policy, providing a constructive call to action for educators, institutions, and decision-makers. It is both an insightful analysis and a roadmap for improving the system that prepares future physicians.
Dr. Sanfilippo’s commitment to addressing real needs in medical education aligns closely with our purpose-built and partner-driven approach at Fenix Alma Solutions. His perspective strengthens our mission to support institutions in preparing graduates who are ready to serve communities effectively and sustainably.
The Doctors We Need is available through major booksellers, including Indigo and Amazon, as well as directly from the publisher, Sutherland House Experts:
