Dr. Devon Mitchell is a PGY-4 Emergency Medicine resident at the University of British Columbia, and in 2023 he became the inaugural candidate for the University of Toronto Area of Clinical Excellence in Queer Health. He is a firm believer that residents across Canada deserve a just, safe, and high-quality working and learning environment.

He was previously the president of the Resident Doctors of BC (RDBC), where he advocated strongly for workplace protections and a fairer deal for residents during collective bargaining. He is also a board member of the Canadian Doctors for Medicare and believes strongly in a high-quality, universal, taxpayer-funded healthcare system. In his spare time, he is an amateur foodie and an even more amateur runner, and he is always interested in recommendations for both restaurants and trails.
