Ada Lo

By dcc2012 | August 27, 2020

Hometown: Port Coquitlam
Program: Family Medicine Residency Program, Surrey-Fraser
Year in Program: 2
What inspired you to pursue your program?

Family medicine enables me to practice a broad scope of medicine so that I can help take care of my patients and advocate for their healthcare needs. As family physicians, we also have the privilege of building long-term relationships with our patients and their families too, which I find extremely rewarding.

What are you most looking forward to this year?

I am excited to take on my new role as a Chief Resident for the Surrey-Fraser Family Residency Program, so that I can give back to the hospital and residents while continuing to ensure the program is an excellent site for learners. The faculty, staff, and clinicians here are fantastic and we will continue to develop competent and excellent family physicians right here in B.C.

How are you making personal wellness a priority during COVID-19?

I’ve learned that having continual support from friends and family is especially important during this time. I make sure to stay connected with friends and family via text or phone even if we cannot meet up.

Favourite physically-distanced social activity?

Enjoying good ice-cream, all to myself!
