These services include all facets of General Surgery from lumps & bumps to traumas and cancers.

​

Our surgeons are all certified members of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada and each have unique training in various sub-specialties and disciplines.

 

In addition, many members are involved with teaching medical students and residents from the Northern Ontario School of Medicine (NOSM). We have produced many outstanding surgeons who have gone on to community practices or pursued advanced training.

​

As we look towards the future, our mandate is to continue the enhancement of our department by the recruitment of new talent and by the acquisition of cutting-edge technology to provide the best possible care to all of our patients.
