Description
In this episode, we’re continuing our pattern of inquiry with active members of the HSD community. Our special guest is Dr. Mike Norbury.
Dr. Norbury is Senior Medical Director for Vancouver Community - Vancouver Coastal Health.
Following completion of his Family Medicine training in Scotland in 2008, Dr. Norbury spent several years working as a GP Academic Fellow and a GP Health Inequality Fellow, during which time he also completed his Masters in Public Health Policy and Health Inequalities.
Concurrently, he worked in large urban primary care clinics serving socio-economically disadvantaged populations in both Glasgow and Edinburgh. He formally became involved in medical leadership in 2011 with his first medical director role.
Dr. Norbury relocated to Vancouver, BC, in 2015 and started work at Raven Song Community Health Centre, serving medically and socially complex primary care clients as a Family Physician.
In 2016, while continuing in clinical practice, Mike became the Medical Director for the Primary Care Program at VCH. In 2019 he became the Associate Senior Medical Director.
Thereafter, in May 2021 he became the interim Senior Medical Director and in July, 2021, Dr. Norbury became the Senior Medical Director, for Vancouver Community - the role in which he still currently works.
Mike also currently holds a Clinical Assistant Professorship in the Department of Family Practice at the University of British Columbia.
