After graduating from the University of Western Ontario with a Bachelor of Health Sciences, I attended Mohawk College. I chose to work at the Oakville-Trafalgar Memorial Hospital (OTMH) due to my great experience as a student here. The hospital is in a great location and the staff are friendly and caring. The team of professionals working in the Diagnostic Imaging Department are very committed to providing quality patient care and excellent customer service.

I enjoy our fast-paced, dynamic workplace that offers great variety and opportunities for continuous learning. I’m looking forward to our new Oakville Hospital site scheduled to open in 2013.
