ANHP Physician and Health Care
Professional Recruiter
I’ve lived my whole life in Kenora (besides my stint of university in Thunder Bay). I’m proud to serve as a physician and healthcare professional recruiter for the ANHP OHT, where I use my homegrown status to my advantage in understanding both the community’s needs — and the nuances of rural healthcare.
My role allows me to blend my background in healthcare and regional knowledge to attract and retain physicians who are eager to make a significant impact in Northwestern Ontario.
By focusing on sustainable and community-oriented healthcare solutions, I aim to help shape the future of medical care in our area!
