A big thank you to all of the locum physicians who are working in our communities during these unprecedented times.

The beautiful Lake Huron coast municipalities of Saugeen Shores and Kincardine have partnered together with the support of Bruce Power, the world's largest operating nuclear power facility, to successfully attract new doctors to our region. Both residents and the local business believe that access to health care in both municipalities is an essential element to a vibrant local community.

That’s why we are working together to reach out to doctors who are interested in moving to one of Canada’s top coastal destinations.

So take a moment and immerse yourself in Bruce County and discover the place that will entertain and surprise you.
