The awards, presented for the first time to a recipient from each campus, are presented to professors in the Faculty who, in the opinion of the senior medical students, have made the most outstanding contribution to their medical education.
In her introduction, Dr. Marion Koch, MD, Program Director, Undergraduate Medical Education, Outaouais Campus, noted that Dr. Labelle has been championing medical education at Campus Outaouais since its very beginning. His course, Early recognition of and response to acute deterioration (ERRAD), which he developed and delivers, regularly receives “rave reviews,’ added Dr. Koch. “Several students mentioned that, influenced by Dr. Labelle, they chose internal medicine as their speciality,” she said. “He showed himself to not only have a very effective teaching approach in the classroom, but also in clinical settings,” guiding them deftly through differential diagnoses to treatment plans, preparing them for the next phase of their medical education.
Congratulations to Dr. Labelle and thank you for your outstanding contributions to medical education!
