New President of South Australian FOV

Dr. Anil Roy has taken over the presidency of the SA FOv from Dr. Lawrie Palmer. Anil was the Vice president for quite a few years.

Anil is a Respiratory Physician at the Queen Elizabeth & Lyell McEwin Hospitals in Adelaide. He did his undergraduate and Post graduate training at CMC Vellore and worked in the faculty of medicine before coming to Adelaide in 2003.

We wish him, his wife Smitha and his children Sowmya and Vineeth the very best. We trust that he will lead the SA FOV to new heights in the years to come.

We also wish to thank Lawrie for his term as the president for the past few years. We very much loved inter reacting with him at the various AGMs and teleconferences.

Peter is the treasurer of the South Australian FOV for many years and we do appreciate very much his invaluable contribution to the cause of CMC over the years.
