Clinical Electives in Francophone Settings

The Office of Francophone Affairs has created an electives catalogue to help you find new elective opportunities throughout your studies. In this catalogue you will find the contact information for physicians offering electives in French in almost all provinces in Canada. Note that the username and password are the same as the ones used to access your One45 account.

Each year, we ask all the Francophone physicians to update their information. They are included in the catalogue on a voluntary basis.

We hope that this tool will help you in your search. Enjoy your electives!

Please contact Lorraine Welburn for any questions you may have.

Students at the University of Ottawa have the possibility of doing clinical electives in a Francophone setting at Hôpital Montfort. All elective requests at Hôpital Montfort must be sent to the appropriate coordinator by following the guidelines listed on Montfort's website (in French only).

The Centre Intégré de Soins et Services Sociaux de l'Outaouais (CISSS Outaouais) offers a number of electives in their clinical settings.

Here is a list of the specialties that are available:

How to plan your electives at CISSS Outaouais:

You must contact the coordinator by email at 07_CISSSO_STAGES_EN_MEDECINE@ssss.gouv.qc.ca. The coordinator will verify the availability.

IMPORTANT: If there is availability for Clerkship electives, you must submit your request to McGill at least 3 months in advance via the AFMC Student Portal.

Note that you must be registered at the Collège des médecins du Québec for the duration of your elective. Guidelines are available through McGill's Institution Profile
