Mr. Philpott was referred by a family member whom he helped over 15 years ago land a great hospitalist job and help transition from USA to Canada. He is well-mannered, prompt and VERY knowledgeable. He took the time to guide me through the process and the requirements I need in order to practice in Canada.

Its a pleasure to discuss the professional and personal merit of CanAm Physician Recruiting, Inc. I have known them for more than 6 years. I came to Canada from Australia in 2004 and I had the worst experience of my life as the recruiting firm that I was dealing with didn’t know the licensing of physicians in Canada. But thankfully my CV was represented by Mr John (CanAm)and my career got on the right path. The professional approach of CanAm is in my opinion the BEST in Canada. Their dealing with physicians is excellent, in true words they are the people who know the criteria to be licensed in Canada for a physician who is not trained here in this country. Keep up the good work guys. FayyazKhan,MD. Staff Anaesthesiologist &B.P.H.C.C.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to John Philpott and his team for establishing a recruiting firm that has helped numerous physicians navigate the complexity of Medical licensure in Canada. I practice in a rural demographic where IMG’s are a crucial element in ensuring an adequate physician supply. John’s team have the experience and expertise that have allowed many of my colleagues to attain licensure and settle comfortably into the Canadian medical milieu. The attention to detail,a personal touch and close follow up are a testimony to the high standards that John Philpott has set as a foundation of his company. I would advise any physician wishing to set up practice in Canada to take full advantage of this outstanding firm. You will not be disappointed.

Phil Jost – Having recently graduated from post-graduate residency and fellowship training in the United States, I was not looking forward to the arduous task of applying for medical licensure nor the challenging necessity of seeking employment in my specialty in Canada. I initially pursued these endeavours independently but soon became frustrated with the number of administrative and other hurdles I faced. When I contacted CanAm Physician Recruiting, I was pleasantly surprised with the promptness of their response (I received a phone call the same day), and with the eagerness of the staff to assist me. The advisor with whom I spoke referred me to you (Phil Jost) stating your expertise in obtaining positions in New Brunswick and surrounding areas. I wished to express my heartfelt gratitude for your assistance with both finding an ideal position for me , as well as your advice and help in procuring my New Brunswick medical license. In these regards, I found you to be attentive to my particular needs and extremely resourceful as well. I also believe you went beyond the call of duty to ensure my smooth transition to licensure, as well as in assisting me find an ideal practice setting within one day of my initial contact with you. Thank you again for your help, and please note that in addition to using your services in the future as needed, I will highly recommend you personally as well as CanAm Physician Recruiting to colleagues seeking practice opportunities in Canada.

Dear Phil I always follow with enthusiasm your news letter, thank you for giving us the feel of Canada recruitment and keep them coming please. Keep well, many regards, Dr. Julio C Gonzalez

I would like to thank John for his efforts in recruiting physicians to St. John’s, NL. The main reason I accepted the job in St. John’s is the because of the great family atmosphere. I believe that John Philipottâ choice of his local agent Natalie Davis, could not be better. She was absolutely amazing. She managed to bond with my family immediately…and I mean at the airport arrival section! She took care of us like family (and this was what I was looking for). I had no problem after that to convince my wife that St. John’s was the place to be. I felt like she was my own personal manager. She accompanied me to the places I needed to be and paved the usually slow process of employment and registration with the different required agencies in record time. Natalie showed us around town and took my wife to the malls, shops, schools, parks, etc. In addition, she went the extra mile many times including taking my child on a play date and helped us with the purchase of our new home. She really was a great ambassador for St.John’s ; John Philipott is even greater for choosing her, because doing a great job might be tough but , to get someone else to do the same job takes outstanding skill and confidence . In reality this is what a manager is.

Phil Jost – I am writing to you to express my gratitude and admiration for your professionalism, high standards and matching capabilities in fitting doctors and their families in the appropriate environment in Canada. My trip in March 2011 was smoothed with careful planning thanks to your Company associates whether those were lawyers , travel agents, bankers orstate agents. My way was paved all the way through.Certainly from this experience CanAm earned my respect, my trust and my loyalty in helping me realise my dream!

To establish/start practice in Canada as IMG is next to impossible keeping in mind the constant change in policies. I must praise John Philpott and his team for their updated, indepth and extensive knowledge in the field. The level of professional commitment is par excellence.If you need sincere advice on your position you can count on CanAm. Keep the good work.

Received by CanAm’s Immigration Counsel, Ravi Jain, LL.B., LL.M., Partner, Green & Spiegel, Barristers and Solicitors, “Thank you so much for your help. That’s the best $1500 I’ve spent in a while. You’ve helped make me and my family very happy. Happy Holidays”.

The Canam team seems to have a very good grasp of what it takes to get IMGs practising in Canada. The staff are hands on and are well placed to advise on steps required to eliminate any deficits capable of making it difficult to get employment as a physician in Canada. The assessment fee is well worth it.
