- for more than 15 years has been a guest lecturer in orthodontics at the Faculty of Dentistry of McGill University in Montreal and at the Centre de Formation Professionnel 24-Juin in Sherbrooke in the Dental Assisting program;
- lectures regularly for orthodontic and dental students, Dental Societies and various assocciations and study groups.
Dr Jules E. Lemay
As one of the first orthodontists to have graduated in this province, Dr. Lemay may be considered a « pioneer » in the specialty of orthodontics in Québec. This gives our practice the distinct honor of being one of the earliest established orthodontic parctice in the province of Québec and even Canada. Dr. Lemay was the first orthodontist in Québec to practice outside the main urban areas such as Montréal and Québec city.
Although he doesn’t treat patients anymore, his invaluable experience and expertise make Dr. Lemay a invaluable and resourceful consultant for our practice. Dr. Lemay is still eager to maintain his orthodontic knowledge up to date and he regularly attends lectures, conventions and seminars with Dr. Jules. He is also actively involved in integrating the new technologies that we implement in our practice.
Our practice is now treating a third generation of patients; some of our patients also had one of their parents and grand-parents treated by Dr. Lemay! To refer members of their family to us represents the best testimonial of trust towards our services that a patient can give us.
