Judy Lugar and Paul Tingley

Nearly 1000 first year students from the Faculties of Health Professions, Medicine, Dentistry and Science (Clinical Psychology) came together on Wednesday, September 14th at the Rebecca Cohn Auditorium to hear the inspiring story of Paul Tingley – who overcame a spinal cord injury to become a Paralympic gold medalist.  Paul was joined by his physiotherapist Judy Lugar to share with students the importance of working collaboratively with patients, their families and other health care professionals as a team.  The event was a great success, with overwhelmingly positive feedback from the students in attendance.  To learn more about Paul and the event, read the DalNews story.
