The mission of the BCMJ is to share knowledge while building connections among BC physicians. Our vision is to be an independent and inclusive forum to communicate ideas and inspire excellence in health care, and our values include diversity of thought and experiences. These objectives are best achieved via open access so physicians, researchers, and patients, regardless of income or location, can benefit from our content.
