He has worked asa consultant for the province, as president of the N.S. College of Family Physicians, and as a preceptor on faculty at Dalhousie School of Medicine.

Outside of medicine, many interests and activities have featured in David's life; they include woodworking, glass art, antique car maintenance, skiing, singing, Scottish dancing, and ancestral research.

David divides his time between two homes: a one-hundred-year-old house in Aylesford, and a house in Wolfville that he shares with his partner (an author and retired textile historian) and a cranky cat named Daisy. Read More Read Less
