Dr. Stevenson-Moore has maintained a private practice since 1978. While doing so, he has become a leader in the prevention and management of the oral complications of cancer and cancer treatment. This work has included the development of protocols for the identification of dysplastic tissue and early cancers; the prevention of the breakdown of teeth (an unfortunate risk associated with several forms of cancer treatment); and the rehabilitation of patients with complex prosthodontic defects.

He was the first person to hold a position of leadership in dentistry and oral oncology in Canada, largely as a result of the significant incidence of oral complications recognized by oncologists at the BC Cancer Agency 35 years ago. His pioneering and leadership role there spanned 29 years, and has resulted in the creation of a department of oral oncology and dentistry that has set world class standards for cancer treatment and research. From its humble beginnings and under the leadership of Dr. Stevenson-Moore, the Agency now serves five, soon to be six, cancer centres in BC.

Gina has been working together with Dr. Stevenson-Moore and Shelley for a very long time. She is a valued member of the team who brings complimentary strengths that help maintain the high level of patient care that Dr. Peter Stevenson-Moore is known for.  As our patients have come to learn, Gina is the one who helps with every step, from setting up the first appointment to the completion of the final treatment.

"I really enjoy being in our office and do my best to ensure our patients enjoy each visit!"

Gina enjoys Vancouver's outdoors and particularly likes hiking with her dog.  And when she isn't working on another project around the house, she's spending time with her family or thinking about her next vacation to some place warm.

"I love to laugh, enjoy life, and never save it for the weekend…enjoy every moment!"

Shelley is our free-wheeling prosthodontic and dental assistant who enjoys the good life living in Whistler, BC where she tends her many potted plants. Shelley has been involved in the dental industry since 1988 starting out as a receptionist. Through hard work, she gained the skills, training and experience necessary to move into a dental assistant's role. Shelley has been working with Dr. Stevenson-Moore since 2000 but has been a friend and associate of both Dr. Stevenson-Moore and Gina for over 19 years.

When Shelley isn’t working she enjoys biking and figure skating. If life ever permits her the time, she plans to complete her figure skating coaching certificate. Shelley enjoys travelling and her favourite destinations include Las Vegas and the Palm Desert – places where she can practice her golf swing.

“I really enjoy playing golf, but I'm absolutely terrible - at least I have really cute outfits!”

When not doing something active, Shelley enjoys fine dining or honing one of her many languages.

“I speak English, French and Sign Language fluently. With a few days' practice, my Serbo-Croatian and Spanish would be back up to a very comfortable conversational level.”

The office of Dr. Peter Stevenson-Moore has a fully functioning laboratory. It is located in the same building as our office (2 storeys below) and is where our lab technicians work on repairing and creating the prostheses and devices that we use to treat various dental challenges. Our lab technicians play an essential part in helping us deliver consistent results for patients. And because of their unique skills and experiences, we sometimes involve our lab technicians with our patients in order to achieve the best possible outcome.
