which he still shares today. Although he does not play as much as before, he has shifted most of his focus to coaching. He has coached Atom A and B, Junior B, PeeWee AA, Midget Girls, and Bantam AAA.

Dr. Douvis loves to volunteer his time such as he did on the Board of Directors for Junior Achievement of Medicine Hat for seven years. He teaches in their programs such as the Economics of Staying in School and Business Basics. He volunteers his time once a year during the Medicine Hat College Information Evening to encourage grade 12 students to attend the College, and also recently spoke at their convocation ceremonies. In addition, he has served 2 years as Vice-President of the Medicine Hat and District Dental Society.

Since joining the clinic, Dr. Douvis and his staff have committed themselves to upholding the high quality of care that this clinic has offered since it first opened it doors over 25 years ago. To continue this commitment to excellence, Dr. Douvis has invested over 950 hours into continuing education to date. Most notably, he has finished many seminars at the world renowned Las Vegas Institute (LVI) of Advanced Cosmetic Dentistry. This has opened new doors to patients mainly in the areas of Orthodontics, Implants, Sedation, Pediatric and Cosmetic Dentistry. At LVI, he continues with seminars in the specialized science of Neuromuscular Dentistry which assists in rebuilding people's bites and solving TMJ problems such as headaches and neckaches. With his receptionist Doris Prosofsky and Level 2 Dental Assistants Laurel Solheim, Shawna Thomas, Jolene Stovka and Pam Dergousaff, Dr. Douvis has maintained a focus for his patients of comprehensive dental care.

With just about nine years behind them and hopefully many more in the future, Dr. Douvis and his team would like to share their appreciation for the other great people who work in this office. They dedicate a great portion of their day to providing you with the highest quality service possible. Dr. Douvis and his staff would also like to extend their gratitude to their loyal patients and appreciate any invitations that they might have to other people in our great community.
