Québec City welcomes a powerful alliance, newcomers, new
graduates, appointments ... and even a new baby!
Stéphanie Turmel, MD, PGY4
Renewed energy through partnership
All residents are united to voice their deepest gratefulness towards Dr Marie-Marthe Thibeault
for having firmly and solely held the reins of the program as Program Director. She has
assumed this position with vigor, professionalism and passion for more than four years. Her
outstanding support and ongoing encouragement have been appreciated. She will now share
this colossal mandate with Dr Pierre-Luc Dion. We welcome formation of this new tandem
with enthusiasm.
Fervour of expertise
Dr Marie-Claude Houle has been reunited with the team after completing a fellowship in
contact dermatitis. We now have the chance to benefit from her expertise, talent and
dedication to broaden our knowledge. A great asset for the program!

On behalf of all residents, we wish to extend our thanks to Steve Mathieu (PGY4) for having

welcome ladies!
Welcome to the family
Warmest welcome wishes to the new residents: Marie-Ève

It’s a boy, congrats!
