With a career in medicine spanning 43 years, Dr. Rex Dunn has dedicated his life to innovating and improving vascular surgery in Cape Breton and beyond. | SaltWire

Dunn and his wife recently made a generous donation to the Cape Breton Regional Hospital Foundation’s Cancer Care Here at Home campaign. For them, supporting the campaign was an important way of giving back to their community.

“Without all of the equipment, the support and the staff, you really couldn't practice what you've been trained to do as a doctor,” he says. The Cancer Care Here at Home campaign was launched last November and is now three-quarters of the way to reaching its $10 million goal. The funding will help ensure that cancer patients in Cape Breton and Nova Scotia Health’s eastern zone have access to the vital equipment they need. It will also increase the hospital’s capacity to conduct clinical research and create new patient programs to give patients the tools they need in their battle with cancer.
