Our society shys away from talking about serious illness and the concept of death, and death, even in medicine, is often considered a failure. Palliative Care focuses on the patient's wishes and hopes and fundamentally believes in striving for the best quality of life possible in difficult situations. Dr. Deb Harrold, a palliative care physician, will bring the palliative care approach directly to the audience with the intention to have us all walk away living our "best life" possible.

Dr. Deb Harrold is a palliative care physician from Huntsville Ontario Canada. She dedicates her time and expertise to ensure every patient has the best quality of life in the face of dying. Hope, goals and gratitude guide this difficult work for both her patients and for her!
