About Endeavor FPN

A Family Practice Network, or FPN, provides a mechanism through which a physician group can address common practice and patient needs, have a collective voice on issues facing family practice, and address local population health needs, in coordination with the Regional Health Authority (RHA). The FPN structure is a physician‐led, non‐profit organization.

Energized by the meaning and symbolism of “Endeavor,” our FPN recognizes the effort to not only aspire to, but achieve and meet the needs of our family practice colleagues and patients. The Endeavor FPN represents participating family physicians in the St. John’s metro area and was established in 2018.
