The Ontario Physician Reporting Centre (OPRC) is the definitive source of information on physicians and postgraduate medical trainees in Ontario. We are a collaborative project governed by four key organizations:
• Ontario Ministry of Health
• College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario
• Council of Ontario Faculties of Medicine
• Ontario Medical Association
Funded by the Ministry of Health and operated at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, OPRC maintains a number of databases and creates annual reports that support physician and human resources planning in Ontario. See our data holdings for more details.
OPRC is guided by the following core values:
Respect
We value and honor the contributions of physicians and the organizations that provide us with data, ensuring their trust through responsible data management and ethical practices.
Integrity
We are passionate about maintaining the highest standards of accuracy, protecting personal information, and continuously evaluating our processes to increase the value and reliability of our information.
Collaboration
We foster strong partnerships with our four governing organizations and engage actively with regional, provincial, and federal stakeholders to ensure comprehensive and valuable data collection and reporting.
System Vision
We strive to understand the dynamics of medical practice and anticipate factors that will influence the composition of the physician workforce, supporting informed decision-making for the future of healthcare in Ontario.
