Dr. Hector Roldan

MD, FRCSC, FACS — Chief of Surgery

Dr. Hector Roldan's path to serving the Muskoka community is a testament to perseverance and unwavering dedication to surgical excellence. Born in Guatemala City and raised in Escuintla, a town by the Pacific Ocean, Dr. Roldan followed in his father's footsteps to become a general surgeon.

After completing his medical degree in Guatemala in 1988, Dr. Roldan came to Canada in 1989, determined to pursue advanced surgical training. He completed a Clinical Science Review Course in Toronto and passed all required Canadian medical licensing exams before completing his surgical residency at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario.
