A Terrace doctor is among those being honoured with My Family Doctor Awards today, in honour of BC Family Doctor Day.
Each year, the BC College of Family Physicians selects five recipients of the award, one from each health authority.
For 2022, Terrace’s own Dr Jaco Strydom was selected as Northern Health’s recipient, after 17 years in Terrace.
It’s not the first time Strydom has been honoured by the College, taking home the College Coin in 2018, adding to a growing list of awards.
Dr Strydom founded the Northwest Therapeutic Equestrian Association, and is heavily involved with the Women’s Wellness Group.
More than 350 patients from across BC sent in nominations for this year’s awards, which celebrate doctor-patient relationships that support good health.
