Dr. Allison Ferg

Dr. Ferg was born in Winnipeg and raised in Flin Flon, Manitoba. She loved growing up in the subarctic, where she and her brothers enjoyed boating, fishing, swimming and camping during the long northern summers. She graduated from the University of Manitoba with her medical degree in 1984, immediately left the long cold winters behind to study family medicine in Victoria, and has practiced here since 1986. Allison enjoys spending time with her two young adult children, travelling with her husband, walking her dog, sitting in her garden, listening to all sorts of music, and reading voraciously. She loves to teach family medicine residents and medical students. She is a retired runner and has completed three Boston Marathons. Her new passion is cycling. And she has never met a gadget she didn’t like.
