<\/a>The Verdun-based clinician, professor, researcher and administrator specializes in healing people with mood and eating disorders. She also handles crisis intervention.<\/p>\n\u201cAll who know her can attest to her professional rigour, and to her humanity and ability to mobilize the health sector to improve access to mental health care,\u201d said Lynne McVey, executive director of the Douglas Institute. \u201cAn award like the Persillier-Lachapelle is certainly fitting as it recognizes the contributions of an exceptional career dedicated to the well-being of people with mental illness. We are extremely proud and extend our warmest congratulations.\u201d<\/p>\n
Congratulations, Doctor Isra\u00ebl.<\/p>\n
