Community Details
Failte (that’s “welcome”, for those not up to speed on their Gaelic)!
Glace Bay, located on Cape Breton Island, is one of the communities in the Eastern Zone. Kitchen parties are a way of life in this quaint and historic mining town. Glace Bay has a population of around 15,000 people at all stages of life, including physicians and their families: see for yourself, here! There are several elementary schools, a middle school, and a high school to accommodate growing families. Here, you will join a community-oriented group of friendly, vibrant people who take part in local gatherings and festivals to celebrate their history and region.
Within Glace Bay are amenities like grocery stores, a local and gym facility, and local and national restaurants. Just 25 minutes away from Sydney, the region’s urban centre and location of Cape Breton Regional Hospital, you are never far away from exactly what you need. In Cape Breton, you are also never far from unreal beauty to hike, swim, cycle, or golf. Parks, hiking trails, and the view of lifetime is around every corner.
In addition, the region remains young and vibrant thanks to nearby Cape Breton University, located 15 minutes away from Glace Bay.
Physicians in Nova Scotia provide fulfilling patient care which embraces family life, professional development and community involvement. That's what makes practicing medicine in Nova Scotia unique.

The size and scale of Nova Scotia allows for better connections across the health care system. Your practice of medicine and your life is richer here. Nova Scotia is more than medicine.
