The Endoscopic Ultrasound has arrived at Dartmouth General Hospital!

This life-changing piece of equipment was made possible thanks to everyone who supported the 2024 Lobster Dinner & Auction — sponsors, guests, and volunteers, as well as the incredible generosity of the J & W Murphy Foundation and the Chassie Family!

The Endoscopic Ultrasound is a powerful tool in cancer care (including pancreatic, esophageal, and re**al cancers) and in diagnosing pancreatic diseases — bringing advanced care closer to home for patients in our community.

Thank you for bringing this technology to patients at DGH!

A little early, perhaps; but you will want to discover the beauty and spirit of indigenous art displayed on these Christmas bulbs! Each piece will add warmth and creativity to that special spot on your Christmas tree. Drop in to the Dartmouth General Hospital Gift Shop and see these unique Christmas tree decorations, if not for yourself, then as a special gift!

Last week, we were treated to the musical talents of The MellowDears; a group consisting of Mike Cowie on trumpet and vocals, Shimon Walt on cello, and Vladimir Sitnikov on guitar.

These talented musicians filled the atrium in the Neville J. Gilfoy Wing with their tunes!

Thank you to Health Arts Society of Atlantic Canada (Concerts in Care) and Arts Nova Scotia, for putting on this monthly musical therapy program for patients. Thank you to J&W Murphy Foundation for helping fund this incredible program.
