[…]     The Department of Ophthalmology will again undergo some changes in 2024.  It is with mixed emotions we will see the  official retirement of Dr. Lorne Bellan.  I wish Lorne well on his next opportunities and know that he looks forward to the  extra time he will devote to his family  and activities that he loves.  As a hallmark leader in our department and the  creator of our residency program, his major contributions will be missed by all.  His retirement is in conjunction with the  recruitment of Dr Paulo Scollo in late August.  Dr. Scollo is an oculoplastic surgeon who will  situate his practice at the  Green Desk of MHC.    Also expected to retire in full from practice this summer or fall is Dr. Mathen Mathen.  Our department is also grateful  for the sacrifices and dedication Mathen gave to our group as the Lead for countless years.   He will leave a void  at MHC  that will be hard to fill.  I hope to update you on our next letter on this and other ophthalmology recruitment initiatives  currently underway for Winnipeg and Brandon.    The department is working closely with EPSOM and MHC executives to promote the merits and importance of the  Sherbrook Development  Initiative.  Provincial Government, WRHA, and Shared Health Services are aware of this  advanced proposal put forward which shows a clear path to sustainable world‐class eye care through infrastructure and  human resource investment.  It is a significant commitment asked of Manitoba Health, and so discussions are ongoing in  attempts to seek  support.    I hope this spring and summer brings you all good health and happiness.  I appreciate the opportunity to work with you  all and recognize that our individual efforts have come to gether to provide a respectful and productive work  environment we can be proud of.  Thank you!      Message from the Program Director Dr. Andre Jastrzebski         Spring is definitely in the air. The days are getting longer, the snow has melted, and I’ve given over my heart and  probably a few years of my life to the dream of a deep Jets playoff run. Before everyone attempts to disconnect a bit for  the summer I wanted  to update you all on progress within our residency program and a few important upcoming events  before the academic year is done.     Just like last year, we are lucky to be welcoming two new residents to our program this summer. Dr. Sloane Kowal will be  joining us from Queens University and  Dr. Sterling King will be joining us from the University of Alberta. I want to thank  everyone involved in the selection process for their time and effort. It is truly worth it to be able to welcome such great  new people into our program. We are also now getting to  work directly with last year’s new residents, Drs. Cung and  Vosoughi, have completed their off‐service rotations and have joined us in the resident clinic over the last few weeks.  […]
