Doctors
Helping UK-trained GPs move into Canadian practice with confidence
Built by a team with experience from leading institutions across healthcare, research, and technology.
Careviv helps both sides understand the person, the opportunity, and the move before making a commitment—then keeps agreed next steps organised when they choose to continue.
For UK GPs
Explore the clinic, practice model, compensation, community, and practical considerations around relocating before deciding what to pursue.
For clinics
Learn about a doctor’s practice goals, location preferences, priorities, and timing before deciding whether to meet.
For both
Use shared context to ask better questions, set clearer expectations, and decide whether the opportunity is worth pursuing.
Moving forward
Coordinate communication, confirmed requirements, and onboarding milestones so the doctor and clinic know what happens next.
Familiar challenges
These are the two questions we help partner clinics answer most often.
Continuity of care
Plan earlier for physician retirement and continuity of care.
Careviv helps clinics begin the conversation before a retirement becomes urgent, consider suitable UK-trained GPs, and coordinate the steps that may support a smoother transition.
Role flexibility
Explore a role that works with your clinic’s capacity.
Some doctors may be open to telehealth, weekend work, flexible scheduling or different compensation structures. Careviv makes these preferences visible so both sides can explore a workable arrangement.
How partnership works
You do not need an immediate vacancy or supporting documents to begin. We learn what your clinic may need now or later, then keep next steps clear as suitable doctors become available.
Request a short intro call so we can understand your location, current capacity, hiring needs, and the kind of GP support you are looking for. Our partnerships team typically responds within two business days.
We organise the essentials—practice model, schedule, compensation, flexibility and timing—so suitable doctors can understand the opportunity.
Based on mutual fit and current candidate availability, your clinic can review suitable doctors and decide who it wants to interview.
We help coordinate introductions, offer discussions, relocation handoffs and onboarding next steps.
We explain the partnership, fees and information-sharing process before a clinic enters a paid engagement or receives identifiable candidate information.
Partnership philosophy
From clinic fit to physician transition, we help make a complex process more manageable.
We understand how physician retirement, access pressure, and hiring gaps affect continuity of care at the clinic level.
We support a process that involves more than recruitment, helping make relocation and practice transition more manageable.
We match with sustainability in mind so clinics and doctors start from stronger alignment.
We do not disappear after an introduction. We stay close to the process as next steps take shape.
When something matters, clinics speak with people who understand the context and can move things forward.
We explain the partnership, fees and information-sharing process before a clinic enters a paid engagement or receives identifiable candidate information.
Getting started
Your clinic profile can remain active even without an immediate vacancy. We check in periodically, and you can update your needs whenever retirement or growth plans change.
Tell us whether you are hiring now, planning for a retirement, or considering future clinic growth.
We start with location, practice model, schedule, flexibility and the type of doctor your clinic hopes to meet.
Compensation, supervision and work-authorisation responsibilities can be clarified when a serious potential match develops.
Partner FAQ
Honest answers on cost, control, and what changes (and what does not) when you go live with Careviv.
Careviv is designed around more than a one-off CV introduction. Clinics can review suitable doctors as they become available, decide who they want to meet, and stay supported beyond the introduction.
We work with clinics that are looking to strengthen family doctor capacity, prepare for a physician retirement, protect continuity of care, or create room for long-term growth in primary care access.
Careviv is currently building clinic partnerships primarily in British Columbia, while selected opportunities in other provinces may be considered based on candidate pathways and delivery capacity.
Our focus is UK-trained GPs who are seriously exploring Canada. Before an introduction, we aim to make their experience, pathway stage, location flexibility, working preferences and household considerations clearer.
Only a short conversation is needed to start. You do not need an immediate vacancy, completed job description, or supporting documents. When a serious match develops, we work with you to clarify the role and any pathway-specific clinic responsibilities.
Not always. Requirements depend on the doctor’s province and licensing pathway. Where supervision may be required, Careviv will identify the question early so the clinic can decide whether it is able and willing to support it.
Clinic involvement depends on the doctor’s immigration status and work-authorisation pathway. Careviv helps clarify the likely responsibilities, while immigration decisions and advice remain with the appropriate authorities and authorised professionals.
Earlier is better. Clinics that begin planning before a retirement, vacancy, or capacity issue becomes urgent usually have more room for stronger matching, smoother coordination, and better onboarding outcomes.
We start by understanding your clinic’s location, needs, goals, and readiness. From there, we look for alignment with UK-trained GPs in our pipeline based on fit, timing, and the type of transition the clinic can support.
Yes. We stay involved through the placement process to help both sides navigate next steps, reduce friction, and support a clearer transition into practice.
Timelines can vary depending on the doctor’s stage, licensing requirements, clinic readiness, and work permit steps. Our role is to help make the path clearer and more manageable from the start.
Careviv explains its fees and when they apply before a clinic enters a paid engagement or receives identifiable candidate information. There is no obligation to proceed after the initial conversation.
