World Family Doctor Day is on 19 May. The 2026 theme is Compassionate care in a digital world.

We are going to spend the next few weeks reading the evidence, listening to family doctors who have been using these tools, and asking the question that matters most. Not whether AI is good or bad, but what it is doing to the work of family medicine. What we will lose if we are not paying attention. What we might gain if we are.

The opening session of the WONCA digital health webinar series, on 12 May at 13:30 UTC, runs in two parts.

The first, with Dr Ana Luísa Neves, Chair of the WONCA Working Party on Digital Health and Director of the Global Digital Health Unit at Imperial College, sets the frame for the series: how is digital innovation affecting the quality of care in primary care settings, examined through the six domains of healthcare quality: patient-centredness, effectiveness, efficiency, timeliness, equity, and safety.

The second part moves directly to the human stakes. Professor Moira Stewart, Distinguished University Professor Emeritus at Western University and one of the architects of the Patient-Centred Clinical Method, joins Dr Keith Thompson, a family physician and CMO at NuraLogix, to ask how family doctors sustain empathy, trust, and the sharing of power in clinical encounters that are increasingly shaped by digital technology.

Together the two parts do what the campaign itself is trying to do: name the quality framework, then ask what happens to the relationship inside it. The session is moderated by Dr Hüsna Sarıca Çevik, Associate Professor of Family Medicine at Ankara University and lead of the Training and Capacity Building workstream of the Working Party.
