November 25 marks the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.

Today also begins the 16 Days of Activism, a period with key dates that serve as reminders that gender‑based violence is still prevalent, and why raising awareness is so important.

Gender‑based violence can take many forms: emotional, online, financial, and more. If you or someone you know is experiencing gender‑based violence, help is available.

Let's say hello again to Dr. Yuchen Cen!

- Welcome back! What have you been up to since your last rotation at SMHC?
🏥Working in the ICU and Medicine ward in St. Thomas hospital which was a great experience in acute care management, hands on procedural skills and dealing with some very sick patients and conditions. Glad to be back and to use that information to help prevent things from getting that far.

- What are you excited to bring into this rotation?
🩺Excited to bring my experiences from working with our internal medicine and specialist colleagues in managing complex condition and cardiac risk stratification and prevention strategies to help our patient population! Hopefully I won’t be needing to run any codes or putting in any chest tubes here.

- What do you hope to improve or explore this time around?
👨‍⚕️Exploring ways to help promote healthy life styles and preventative care to avoid needing to go to the hospital!

- What do you enjoy most about being back at SMHC?
👩‍⚕️Seeing all the friendly faces from the front and back office to our amazing nurses (Nurse Heidi!) who run the show in addition to following up on our patients and how their summers have been.

- Any new hobbies or interests you’ve discovered?
🧗‍♂️I’ve recently(ish) got into rock climbing which has been a lot of fun but the injuries are starting to pile up so we’ll see how long it lasts, its been fun to challenge my slight fear of heights.

- Advice to your past self: What would you tell yourself on day one of residency?
😁It only gets better from here!

- What’s something you’re excited about in the next year—professionally or personally?
🏅💊Working on my procedural joint injection skills from my sports medicine rotations to help more patients with chronic joint pain to have relief and playing collegiate tennis when I’m able to.

Let's say hello again to Dr. Siobhan LeSarge!

🌎Where are you from?
Sarnia Ontario

🎓Where did you go to medical school?
I did my undergrad, Master’s, and the combined MD/PhD program at Western University

🩺What inspired or motivated you to pursue a career in family medicine?
Family medicine is the perfect specialty for me for many reasons including the reward and continuality of patient care, the diversity of patient interactions, the wide scope of practice, and the opportunity to support patients with and without chronic diseases with health behaviour change to support the prevention of disease, prevention of disease progression, and promotion of wellness.

🥼Why did you choose SMHC for your family medicine residency?
I heard such great things from colleagues about Mount Brydges and Strathroy! I love that you get exposed to a wide scope of family medicine including clinic, long term care, hospitalist, and emergency medicine.

🐕 🏃‍♀️What's your go-to activity when you need to unwind?
I love being active and spending time with my friends, family, and 5-year-old Aussiedoodle dog Moxie.

🍝🍕Favourite food or dish?
Tough question... I love all food! But if I had to pick a favourite I would say Italian cuisine and Carbonara pasta.

🤼‍♀️🤿Fun fact or hidden talent?
I was always very into athletics. I did varsity wrestling at Western and have my scuba diving license.
