Resident Committee Co-Chairs


Dr. Alexis Sharp
PGY3, Pediatric Medicine

Alexis (She/Her) is a third year Pediatric Medicine resident at the Memorial University of Newfoundland. Alexis completed medical school at the Northern Ontario School of Medicine (Thunder Bay campus) and is originally from a rural area of Northwestern Ontario. Since moving to Newfoundland, Alexis has enjoyed hiking the East Coast Trail with her puppy whenever she has the chance. 


Dr. Julie Saby
PGY-1, Family Medicine
University of Saskatchewan

Julie (she/her) is a family medicine resident in Moose Jaw, SK. She completed medical school at the University of Alberta, and has always had a passion for rural medicine. She enjoys the wide scope of practice that comes with being a rural physician, along with the jovial spirit of rural communities.  When not working in the clinic or the ER, Julie can most likely be found outside hiking in the nearby provincial parks, discovering new giant roadside attractions, or baking treats for her clinic staff.
