Look who is back in Algoma...

🌟 Welcome, Max! 🌟

NSHN and the Huron Shores Family Health Team are excited to welcome Northern Ontario School of Medicine (NOSM) UGY3 Learner Maxwell (Max) to our communities! 👋

Originally from St. Joseph Island, Max grew up travelling to Elliot Lake to play hockey — so he’s already a little familiar with the area! 🏒

A first-generation university student, Max earned his Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Lakehead University and worked in long-term care, acute care (ICU, ER, and medical-surgical), and as a psychiatric attendant before entering medical school.

He enjoys cross-country skiing, working out, reading, and photography, and his research interests include AI in health care and treatment adherence.

Max is passionate about Internal Medicine and Hematology/Oncology, and hopes to return to the Algoma area to practice close to his hometown roots.

Join us in giving Max a warm North Shore welcome! 👏
