Alberta’s chief medical officer has deep local ties
Alberta’s chief medical officer of health has been earning praise from Albertans across the province for her leadership during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Dr. Deena Hinshaw has become a familiar face thanks to her daily updates on the number of cases in Alberta and the province’s ongoing work to ensure public safety.
Count on local historian Michael Dawe to point out Dr. Hinshaw’s strong connection to our area.
“She has been a real standout in these challenging times,” Dawe said in a post on Facebook. “However, as I know her Mom, Dr. Judy Bergstrom Hinshaw, and knew her Dad, Dave, I am not surprised by how bright and capable she is.”
