Lady Minto Hospital Welcomes General Surgeon
CEO, Paul Chatelain, and the Board of Directors of Lady Minto Hospital are thrilled to announce the successful recruitment of General Surgeon, Dr. Shiraz Elkheir, who will officially join the Operating Room Team in October 2021! This is welcome news for Cochrane as the Hospital will be able to continue to provide essential surgical services to the MICs communities.
Dr. Elkheir completed his postgraduate program in General Surgery in June of 2016 at McMaster University in Hamilton. Since then, Dr. Elkheir has been working in Fort Frances, and in June 2021, provided locum services in Cochrane which led to considering the vacant full-time position.

Please join the Board and Hospital staff in extending a warm welcome to Dr. Elkheir!

Depuis lors, le docteur Elkheir a travaillé à Fort Frances, et en juin 2021, a offert ses services à titre de praticien suppléant à Cochrane ce qui l’a conduit à considérer le poste vacant à temps plein. L’équipe est ravie que le docteur Elkheir ait accepté ce poste et a hâte de l’accueillir à la famille de l’Hôpital Lady Minto. Veuillez-vous joindre au conseil d’administration et le personnel hospitalier pour souhaiter une chaleureuse bienvenue au docteur Elkheir!
