Nadine Korah MDCM, MSc, FRCPC

Academic General Pediatrics, Hospitalist
Fun fact about me 

I learnt how to dance the samba when I represented the Montreal Children's Hospital at the inagural Dancing with the Docs fundraiser.

I love working with children and their families because 
giving them the tools and encouraging them to reach their potential is the greatest feeling in the world!
