Chateauguay dental clinic to donate percentage of proceeds to Leucan

Since February 22, the Centre de Santé dentaire Dr. Thu Nguyen is collaborating with Brossard’s Leucan Montérégie organization to raise funds to benefit children affected by pediatric cancer.

Ending on Thursday, March 10, the clinic will donate $10 from every exam and cleaning to the association. “Those interested in giving a boost to the clinic in achieving its goal can make an appointment for an examination and cleaning,” stated a representative for the clinic.

Founded in 19778, Leucan Montérégie is one of nine regional offices. Dedicated to helping children affected by cancer, Leucan offers assistance to families through the availability of necessary services through all stages of cancer. Associated with four pediatric oncology centres throughout the province (CHU Sainte-Justine, the Montreal Children’s Hospital, the Centre mère-enfant du CHUQ and the CHUS), the organization annually contributes close to $1,000,000 to clinical research—they also fund the Leucan Information Centre in Sainte-Justine.

The dental clinic, open in 2007 by McGill graduate Dr. Nguyen, is located at 185 St-Jean-Baptiste, #300-C in Chateauguay. The office, which specializes in orthodontics, is a favourite with families in Chateauguay. Contact the clinic at 450 691-0711 for more information.
