The following message was circulated electronically in early November 2021 by Dr. Eugenie Phan to her active patients:
I have made the difficult decision of closing my family practice in order to focus on my other practice of providing care for homebound seniors through House Calls. My last day providing care at Magenta Health will be on Friday, December 3rd, 2021.
Your care will be seamlessly transferred to Dr. Jennifer Peng, who has graciously accepted the commitment of taking over your care on Monday December 6th, 2021. You will use the same booking process and pages to book your appointments with Dr. Peng. Although the news may seem to be sudden, this difficult decision was made some time ago, and we have been actively seeking to find the right physician to whom I would be confident in providing the expertise and level of care that I wish for you.I know you will all be in excellent hands with Dr. Peng.
Dr. Jennifer Peng is a practicing family doctor in the community and will be relocating her current practice to Magenta Health. She is a graduate of the University of Toronto Family Medicine Program and completed her residency training at Mount Sinai Hospital. She has an interest in preventative health and patient education.
It has been an absolute honor to be able to take part in your care. Family practice is about relationship building, and through this relationship with you, I have learned to be a better doctor. I am truly sad to leave, but the challenges of this year have made me realize the need to prioritize my time in an area of care that is under-serviced. I know that the pandemic has been tough for many of you, so please do continue to take care of yourself. Thank you for trusting me with your health.
In Kindness,
Dr. Eugenie Phan
