Adèle Gratton Medicine Professional Corporation, Toronto, ON

Dr. Adèle Gratton graduated (cum laude) from the University of Ottawa's medical school in 1978, a goal that she set for herself as a teenager. As a medical student she found that nearly every time she was exposed to a new branch of medicine that it became her favourite to the point where she excelled in several of them and won distinction accordingly. At graduation she was recognized by her peers as one of two from their medical class to be invited to join Alpha Omega Alpha, the North American honour medical society.

Dr. Gratton's broad interest in medicine led her to choose a mixed internship when admitted to McGill University's medical program at the Montreal General Hospital. At the Montreal General she demonstrated a strong aptitude for Radiation Oncology and was accepted into McGill's Radiation Oncology residency program following her internship.
