Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario, houses one of Canada's most respected medical schools within its Faculty of Health Sciences. The four-year MD programme is distinguished by a commitment to distributed medical education — with clinical campuses in Kingston, Oshawa, and rural southeastern Ontario — ensuring students gain experience across urban academic, suburban community, and rural practice environments. Training takes place at Kingston Health Sciences Centre (KHSC), which includes Kingston General Hospital (a 450-bed teaching hospital and Level 1 trauma centre) and the Hotel Dieu Hospital.

Queen's pioneered virtual patient simulations and leads in rural medicine innovation. The School of Medicine's intimate size (100 students per class) ensures exceptional mentoring and strong peer relationships. Research strengths include cancer biology, cardiovascular science, and health services research through the ICES Queen's site.

Kingston is a historic lakeside city on Lake Ontario with a safe, walkable downtown, low cost of living, and easy access to both Toronto and Montreal. For UK students, Queen's offers a supportive community-based medical education model with strong clinical preparation and international recognition.
