Dr Riley Stewart is leading the charge as the team captain of our Dartmouth General Lead On Climbers. A team of DGH doctors, foundation staff, and community leaders who are dedicated to helping patients with colorectal cancer and raising awareness for colon cancer prevention. From raising funds to purchase vital endoscopy equipment, to performing life-saving procedures, our team is supporting patients every step of the way through Nova Scotia’s world-class colorectal cancer screen program.

For almost 50 years, Dartmouth General Hospital has been quietly leading the way in innovative care and practices. Most recently, Dartmouth General has become a provincial and national leader in using robotics and artificial intelligence to improve orthopedic surgery outcomes and advance colorectal cancer screening and diagnosis.
