“Doc D” was passionate about his family, farm, dogs, horses, and his work. He was an Orthopaedic Surgeon, a Sport Medicine Specialist and Chief of Staff/Medical Director for over 40 years in Moncton. He helped found the Dr. Leon-Richard Oncology Centre and the NB Centre of Medical Education in Moncton; he supported the Dumont Foundation and Tree of Hope. Inducted into the Moncton Sport Wall of Fame, Dan was Team Physician to the Moncton Wildcats, the U de M Blue Eagles and many local sports teams. He was Chief Medical Officer for Canadian Figure Skating Championships, represented Canada as a member of the Olympic Medical Team in Lillehammer, served as President of the NB Sport Medicine Council and as Medical Director for the VIII Francophone Summit. Dan recently received a Medal of Honor from the University of Moncton.
