Announcement: Introducing our New Adjunct Representative: Dr Firas Al-Dhaher

I grew up on a farm in Westminster, Ontario, just outside of London. I graduated from Western University where I trained in rural family medicine at Mount Brydges, and now serve as the site director for the Petrolia site. My clinical practice interests include emergency medicine and sports medicine. I am also very enthusiastic about medical leadership and practice management. Currently I live with my wife and twin boys in London. 
 
I was inspired to teach in addition to my regular clinical duties after supervising medical students from Schulich, and found the experience to be rewarding. Not only am I learning so much from them, but I found that mentoring and helping them achieve their professional goals has been incredibly inspiring. 
 
I hope to use this position as an opportunity to help raise the awareness of the many wonderful preceptors and communities that are affiliated with Western, and to continue to promote community and rural family medicine.
