Island Health hosts Primary Care Grand Rounds to encourage new ways of thinking, introduce new or updated ideas, generate discussion, and in some cases debate around important health issues. The Grand Rounds are hosted by Dr. William Cunningham, Department Head Primary Care, and Dr. Leah MacDonald, Executive Medical Director of Island Health.
Dr. Ilona Hale is family physician from the rural East Kootenays of BC. She is the Clinical Advisor for Low Carbon, High Quality Care for Health Quality BC.
