Our Leadership

Board of Directors 2022-23   

Dr. Sarah Le Blanc, President: Moved to Prince Edward County with her husband and daughter in 2015, after studying here as a medical student.  Sarah is originally from Carleton Place, and spent time studying in both Montreal and Kingston before settling in the County.  Sarah works in her office practice, the ward and the ER at our local hospital, and takes a special interest in home- and hospice-based palliative care.  It is her pleasure to serve on the board of the PEFHT, to give back to a community that has given her family so much.

Dr. Norma Charriere, Vice President: Originally from Winnipeg, Dr. Charriere grew up in a French/Metis family.  She worked for 25 years as a Nurse/NP throughout northern Manitoba. Dr. Charriere then attended McMaster University for Medical School, then Queen's University for Family Medicine. She is very committed to rural medicine and serving our rural communities through these challenging times. 

Dr. Amber Hayward-Stewart, Secretary: Bio coming soon

He and his wife, Dr. Anne Nancekievill, have been family doctors in our community for 30+ years. Along with his office practice, Dr. Blanchard works on the ward and in our ER. He also shares the lead physician role for our cardiac rehab program.
