Stelmaschuk

On December 21, 2011, the CDSBC Inquiry Committee rescinded the citation issued to former dentist Clarence (Clark) Stelmaschuk on the basis of his agreement that he would not in future apply for registration to the CDSBC or the governing body for dentistry in another province or foreign jurisdiction. He has made no admissions of misconduct. The hearing, set to commence January 30, 2012, has been cancelled.
