What Physicians Are Saying

“The positive experiences during my time as a medical student at the McMaster Niagara Regional Campus certainly influenced my decision to establish a career at Niagara Health.”

“I learned so much from the fantastic physicians, nurses and clinicians here. Since then, I have seen incredible growth of our Emergency Department, and I am proud to be part of the next phase of Emergency Medicine with the new South Niagara hospital project.

Dr. Pamela Kapend

Emergency Department
“As a newly graduated Emergency Medicine physician, I cannot picture a better place to grow your confidence and skills than at Niagara Health.”

“It is rare to find such a cordial group of physicians, nurses and allied healthcare workers. In addition to the rewarding clinical work, there are a number of fantastic research and teaching opportunities through our Emergency Medicine Researchers of Niagara group and the Niagara Campus of McMaster University.”.
