The Dauphin Hospital Foundation is offering condolences after the passing of Dr. Allan Lysack.
Hospital Foundation Chairman Greg Thomson says “Dr. Lysack really loved and enjoyed his work over the years at Dauphin Regional Health Centre and he was so very dedicated and sincere in helping his patients.”
Thomson says Dr. Lysack helped shape the provision of health care in Dauphin and rural Manitoba early in his tenure, adding that the Dauphin Hospital Foundation is saddened to learn of his passing, “but will always acknowledge the legacy he left not only in health care, but within the community overall.”
Dauphin General Hospital was Dr. Lysack’s first post after he graduated from Medical School in 1965. His medical career in Dauphin spanned over five decades and he retired officially in 2017.
In 2009, he was recognized for over 45 years of service as a surgeon at Dauphin Regional Health Centre.
In 2002, he was appointed to the Order of Canada by then Gov. General Adrienne Clarkson.
