The Canadian Hellenic
Medical Society

Bringing together Greek physicians and health care professionals across Canada.

Connecting
our community

Use the directory to find Hellenic healthcare providers near you.

We created a directory of physicians and healthcare professionals to help Greek patients across Canada connect with providers who understand their language and heritage. Whether you’re seeking culturally sensitive care or simply prefer to speak in Greek, this tool is here to support you.

The Canadian Hellenic Medical Society

Finding inspiration in every turn

The purpose of the Canadian Hellenic Medical Society is to connect physicians, trainees, students, and healthcare professionals living in Canada of Greek heritage with the intention of sharing knowledge through CME events, providing networking opportunities, and awarding scholarships to medical students.
