Examination Volunteer Recognition

These physicians are team leaders who work with the simulated office orals (SOO) Leads and Assistant Leads to ensure each block of candidates (East, Francophone, Central, and West) are appropriately tested. They are first in line to help solve any issues raised by the SOO Leads and Assistant SOO Leads during the examination.

• Chief Examiner: Dr. Alan Ng
• Assistant Chief Examiners:
  • Dr. Dominique Pilon
  • Dr. Andries Muller
  • Dr. Kendall Noel
  • Dr. Jean Maziade
  • Dr. Samantha Horvey

SOO examiners played the role of patient and scored the candidate according to a standardized marking scheme.

The SOOs took place on the last two weekends in April 2023 and examiners had the option of volunteering on the first or second weekend. Some chose to volunteer on both; they have been indicated with an asterisk (*).
