Canadian Doctor's Orchestra

Fundraising Campaign

The Canadian Doctors' Orchestra (CDO) is preparing for its debut concert weekend at UVic’s Farquhar Auditorium this December. The CDO are bringing together healthcare professionals and students from across the country to bridge the gap between music and medicine, supporting local health initiatives and physician wellness through their performances. A fundraising campaign is underway to support their inaugural concert and to learn more or donate directly through their Zeffy page, click/tap here.

Share your knowledge with your colleagues. We are now planning our fall CME Grand Rounds schedule, beginning September 10th, and invite medical professionals to present in their area of expertise. By learning from one another, we expand our knowledge across the many fields of medicine. Presenters receive a honourarium equivalent to 2.75 sessional time.

Sessions are held virtually through Teams and run from 8:00am-9:00am the second Thursday every month from September to June. Please contact Sharon Hughes-Geekie or Susan Cyr to arrange your presentation date.

View previous CME Grand Rounds on the MSA's website.
