Dr Todd Loewen - Fernie
I have lived, played, and worked in Fernie for the past 20 years bringing up 4 children fortunate to call the East Kootenay their birthplace. After growing up myself in Vancouver I started work in the remote community of Stewart BC after training in Victoria, Bella Coola, Fernie, and Port McNeil. I continue to provide full-service rural family practice although unlike some of my amazing colleagues, I no longer provide maternity services in addition to private clinic/ER/inpatient/long-term care.
Due to an interest in supporting this rewarding work and enhancing it to allow for long-term sustainability to meet the needs of our communities and physicians, I became involved in the Divisions of Family Practice; first as a board member and now, as physician lead.
