Dr Sternson said, "I follow on from Angelo Pacella who did an incredible job steering our members through a difficult and turbulent year, mainly due to COVID-19. I joined the ADA for collegiality, education and advocacy, and it is with those three magic words in mind that I aim to improve the services to all our members. We will continue to advocate with government for continuity of practice, sugar tax and third-party issues. We will provide collegiality through events, mentorship and just being there. I want to assure every member that Council is here for you, and our doors are always open. I welcome anyone that wants to speak directly with me to contact me."
We also congratulate Dr Warren Shnider annnounced as ADAVB Vice President and Dr Andrew Heredia elected Executive Councillor.
