LFP payment model attracts family doctors from UK to BC
September 12, 2025

A UK family doctor, Dr. Saad Khan and his partner, Samantha are sharing their relocation to British Columbia through their popular Instagram account and have drawn significant interest from healthcare professionals overseas.
In the article published by the Vancouver Sun, the couple identified BC’s Longitudinal Family Practice (LFP) model as a central reason for relocating. Our payment model supports continuous, relationship-based patient care and aligns with the shared goal of longitudinal primary care and fair compensation.
Their story shows how competitive practice models such as LFP are helping attract and retain a much-needed primary care physician to BC. We are excited to welcome them to our province.
