Hector M BaillieFor over 35 years, Dr Baillie has practiced cardiovascular medicine in rural BC. Born in Islay, Scotland, he studied science and engineering before taking on medicine (Glasgow). He emigrated to Canada in 1982, and studied internal medicine (and anestesia) in Winnipeg. In rural practice, he enjoys working with doctors and nurses, teaching medical residents, and of course, interacting with patients. He has had numerous academic interests, including Editor-in Chief of the Canadian Journal of General Internal Medicine; examiner for the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons; and assessor for the BC College's Practice Enhancement Program. He is enthusiastic about quality improvement, the new paradigm in medicine. In these difficult times for healthcare, system change remains at the top of his agenda. He firmly believes patients should have a stronger voice in crafting the healthcare system they deserve. When time allows, he enjoys painting, kayaking, travelling, and writing. He lives in Nanaimo, BC, with his wife (Sheena), and chocolate lab (Cassie). Connect with him at hbaillie@telus.net, or hectorbaillie.ca. Read More Read Less
