The CCMSBC 37^th AGM GALA is held in person this year – after being on hold for two years due to the pandemic.  Once again, the gala was a successful and enjoyable event.  This year at the Royal Vancouver Yacht Club, we hosted one hundred and twenty guests. This included honorary guests from the BC Government, Doctors of BC, SUCCESS, Chinese Canadian Dental Society of BC, as well as friends and families from the community.

Our VIP guests Mr. David Eby (MLA and BC Premier hopeful), Dr. Ramneek Dosanjh (Doctors of BC President), Dr. Maria Chung (Board Director of SUCCESS), and Dr. Yuanyuan Chen (CCMCBC president) addressed the attendees, expressing the appreciation for CCMSBC’s efforts in promoting professionalism as well as fellowship and friendship among our colleagues and community.

Our guests enjoyed wonderful performances by the members of Board of Directors and medical students.  We had a delightful three course dinner, exciting prize giveaways, and Karaoke.

CCMSBC Board of Directors 2022 – 2023 were introduced at Gala (Details here).

This year’s CCSMBC Scholarship recipient is Miss Nicole Wang, who is entering her grade 12 at the Crofton School (Details here).  The award was officially presented to Nicole by Honorable Mr. David Eby at the Gala.
