Dr. Daniel Dodek
Physician Lead for Physician Wellness
“My goal, as Vancouver Division Lead for Physician Health, is for family doctors in Vancouver and all communities, to feel appreciated, valued, experience joy in their work and take care of their health.”
The Division would like to acknowledge physician lead, Dr. Daniel Dodek for his ongoing commitment to bring wellness to the forefront of our communications and support. Dr. Dan writes a weekly physician wellness column to offer discussion and presentation of support centred around health and wellness. His ‘Dr. Dan Wellness Tips’ continue to provide comfort, reflection, and humour, through sharing an honest and relatable voice, which has become so important during this past year.
Take a look through some of Dr. Dan’s Tips and Resources below. If you were inspired by a previous Dr. Dan Wellness Tip or Resource and looking to find it, please contact Bella Hauner.
