The Pacific Region Indigenous Doctors' Congress (PRIDoC) started in 2002 to provide a vehicle for Indigenous physicians and medical students to network, discuss issues of mutual interest, share scientific advances and best practices as well as ancient wisdom and traditional knowledge to further the health and well-being of our communities. In addition, support and mentorship of our medical students has always been an important PRIDoC function.
The PRIDoC Council has six formal members that take turns hosting PRIDoC every two years. PRIDoC 2022 was hosted by The Indigenous Physicians Association of Canada (IPAC) in Vancouver B.C.
Each of the past destinations shaped the success of our gatherings, as we celebrate the rich tapestry of culture that threads throughout the lands.
