Did you know?

Dr. Belliveau doesn’t just operate in Halifax. Surgeons interested in new and emerging technology have opportunities to take their expertise to other surgical centres. Dr. Belliveau also works at Apex Surgical Centre in Cornerbrook NL and at the Clinique Michel Pop in Montreal QC. Recently, Dr. Belliveau spent his time in Montreal becoming the first Atlantic Canadian surgeon certified on the Light Adjusting Lens(LAL) by RxSight. The LAL is the first and only lens that can be customized after cataract surgery. Over the coming months, Dr. Belliveau will evaluate this technology to assess its suitability for Halifax Vision Surgical Centre. More information on LAL can be found at rxsight.com/patients

Merry Christmas from HVSC. We want to thank you all for the great year and hope Santa finds you happy and healthy this holiday season!

First year having a tree at HVSC. It’s kind of bare right now but hopefully soon it will be filled with wonderful decorations as we have grown so much over the past few years. We’re calling this our employee tree. Past and present employee’s are welcome to add a little something to make this a very special tree.

A great staff day. Started out tubing down the Gaspereau River, followed by a rush to The Tiki Boat Tour. This is a must try.
