Honour Dr. Todd Owatz and Help Us Raise Funds for the Ambulatory Care Department at KBRH

Dr. Todd Owatz was a dedicated surgeon and worked in the Ambulatory Care Unit at Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital (KBRH). When Dr. Owatz passed away on Oct 15, 2020 he left a legacy of care and service to his patients and colleagues.  In addition to his work at KBRH, Dr. Owatz had a passion for fitness and health.

To honour his memory, we are asking all our movement competitors to solicit pledges to help us raise funds for the Ambulatory Care Department at KBRH. Our Operation Owatz movement challenge has a $20,000 goal to assist the KBRH Health Foundation with the purchase of a Gastroscope for the Ambulatory Care Department.
