Streamlined Staffing Solutions for MOA Recruitment
MOAs are vital for any clinic operation. They are often the first point of contact for patients, setting the tone for the care experience and ensuring smooth communication between patients, physicians, and the broader care team. Beyond reception duties, MOAs coordinate appointments, manage patient records, process referrals, support billing workflows, and help maintain privacy and security standards. Their organizational skills keep daily schedules on track, reduce administrative burden for physicians, and contribute directly to clinic efficiency and patient satisfaction. Because MOAs are such essential partners in delivering high-quality, patient-centred care, ensuring clinics can efficiently recruit and retain skilled MOAs is critical.
Emphasizing the Richmond Division’s commitment to evolving our support services, we are excited to announce that the RDFP Recruitment Website has officially expanded to now feature MOA job postings directly on our platform!
Strengthening Recruitment Through Integrated MOA Postings
By integrating MOA opportunities into our site much like the active family physician postings, these vacancies now seamlessly link to existing Clinic Profiles, offering a comprehensive view of your practice to prospective talent. This change centralizes recruitment efforts for Richmond family practices, offering the benefit of both local visibility and broad digital exposure.
Get Involved: If you are currently recruiting MOAs or anticipate a vacancy, we invite you to complete our new RDFP MOA Recruitment Form to request a posting.
We look forward to leveraging these new tools to help you build a strong, supported clinic team. And let us know how else RDFP can help with MOA job postings.

Dr Yau’s Post-Graduate Journey into Family Practice in Richmond
Through the lens of Dr. Olivia Yau’s post-grad journey, discover how prospective practitioners are increasingly utilizing locum-to-permanent roles to find the right long-term fit; a process that offers incoming family physicians’ low-pressure exposure to potential clinical homes while delivering essential burnout relief to Richmond’s local family practices.
“I graduated in July 2025 from the UBC Vancouver Fraser Family Medicine Program and, like many new graduates, felt both excited and a little overwhelmed by the question of where to start. I was eager to explore different practice settings and learn from a variety of clinic environments before committing to a permanent role, but navigating those options on my own initially felt daunting.
I reached out to the Richmond Division of Family Practice for guidance, and their support made a meaningful difference. They connected me with local clinics, shared clear resources about opportunities in the community, and facilitated introductory meetings that allowed me to learn about different practice styles, patient populations, and clinic cultures in a low-pressure, supportive way.
Working as a locum across multiple Richmond clinics has been an incredibly positive experience. I’ve felt genuinely welcomed by clinic teams and patients alike, and it’s been rewarding to begin building relationships within the Richmond medical community. I’m grateful for how approachable and responsive the Division has been throughout this transition, helping turn an overwhelming moment into a confident and exciting start to practice.”
– Dr. Olivia Yau, Locum to Permanent Family Physician in Richmond
