Due to the increase in Physician burnout, pressures on the system and increased demands on Physician time it is important for Surrey Memorial Hospital to have a wellness committee. Our Vision is to build a community of engaged Surrey partners in order to create a great place to work and receive care. To do that we must build a community of healthy physicians, to make the hospital a better place to work and to becoming experts in wellness.
