Remembrance Day is a time to reflect on our military, past and present.
On the eve of that day, you are invited to spend some time reflecting on the mind of the modern soldier, as seen through the lens of a fellow physician and military officer.
What happens when medical culture meets Canadian military culture?
You are invited to find out.
Our guide for the evening will be Dr. Atif Butt.
Dr. Butt joined the Canadian Armed Forces in 2003 as a Health Care Administrator.
He then completed his medical school and Family Medicine Residency at McMaster University, through the Military Medical Training Program.
Upon graduation in 2013, he served as a Medical Officer and is currently the senior military physician, holding the rank and position of Clinical Major, at 31 Canadian Forces Health Services Centre, Borden.

He has an MBA in Health Services Management and is a Certified Health Executive. Dr. Butt has worked on several important projects at his military clinic including implementing virtual care and improving women’s health.
