Message from the Chair

Randolph Guzman , MD, FRCSC, FACS, RVT, RPVI

As a member of the Royal College practicing in Winnipeg, Manitoba, it is my privilege to welcome you as the new Chair of your Regional Advisory Committee (RAC) 2.

I became a fellow with the Royal College in 1992 after completing my General and Vascular Surgery postgraduate training at the University of Manitoba and have since been practicing full time vascular surgery in Winnipeg. I have served with the College in various roles in the Specialty of Vascular surgery over the years, including program director, former Chair of the Examination Committee, and current Chair of the Specialty Committee. 

I have recently joined the Royal College Council in 2019 and was appointed the Chair of RAC 2. I currently serve as the Section Head for Vascular Surgery at the University of Manitoba.

The purpose of the Regional Advisory Committee is to

  • identify regional issues relevant to the practice of specialty medicine, medical education, and health policy for action by the Royal College;
  • promote effective communication with regional members;
  • facilitate regional members’ ability to share their perspectives, strategies or solutions within areas of common interest;
  • support the continuing professional development of members through collaboration with regional CPD Educators and other regional partner organizations; and
  • identify and support the development of regional members with the experience, skills and expertise to serve in various volunteer roles within the Royal College.

Each RAC serves an important role in developing strategies to engage all members in our region in a dialogue concerning issues that are important to the profession and the core mission of the Royal College. We value your involvement and participation in contributing your perspectives and experiences on a wide range of issues or initiatives.

If you have any questions or issues that you would like to raise, you can contact me at rac2chair@royalcollege.ca. Note: RAC Chair email inboxes are monitored by Royal College staff.

Sincerely,

Randolph Guzman , MD, FRCSC, FACS, RVT, RPVI
