After welcoming a new Executive Director a few weeks ago, the Fondation Hôpital Saint-Eustache (FHSE) now has a new president at the head of its board of directors, in the person of Pierre G. Mayer.

«Mr. Pelletier, Jacques my friend, sincere thank you for these wonderful years working together for the betterment of our hospital which, I know, was and still is one of your major concerns. Your involvement in the construction of the Foundation building has enabled our hospital to offer new dialysis and cancer care to our population.

Thank you for having been this faithful ally for our institution which always needs benevolent and devoted people like you to pursue our mission!Said Mr. Mayer.
