She has been invited to speak in various capacities to improve the level of care being offered by other dentists in the region. On a personal note, Dr Corbeil enjoys hiking, stand-up paddling, and spending time outdoors as well as travelling with her two sons.
I always used to love visiting my pediatric dentist as a child. At the age of 10, I announced to my parents that I would become a pediatric dentist; I appreciate the support and encouragement they have shown me throughout my journey. I have always loved working with kids. In my mid-teens, I enjoyed working with children as a track and field coach and as camp counselor. Once in university, a summer internship at the dental department of a pediatric hospital confirmed that my childhood dream was meant to be. I met Dr Nikoui in 2003 while practicing in Montreal when she shared her vision for her future dental practice. I decided to join her new clinic so I have been blessed to work with a wonderful team ever since.
