Dr Clare Schnurr and her husband Dr Paul Moroz moved to Hawaii from Canada’s capital city, Ottawa, 5 years ago to pursue a new medical career working with Pacific Islanders and new immigrants at Kalihi Palama Health Center. Career plans changed last year and a move to Straub Clinic, Urgent Care allowed time off to join Dr Paul’s Outreach medical missions to the South Pacific Islands. Then COVID hit…no more travel. Medical duties now focus on Urgent Care and direct Outpatient care of COVID patients. Dr Schnurr is Board Certified in Family Medicine in both Canada and the United States and has practiced Family Medicine for over 25 years. Clare has a Master’s Degree in Medical Research and she received her MD degree and Family Physician Residency from McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Her Special interests in Global Health have taken her to the Gambia, West Africa, Tanzania, Nepal and Bhutan, Asia. Clare has been a member of the Rotary Club Honolulu Sunset for 3 years and has fond memories of joining the Metro Rotary Club in “Clearing the Bush” for the development of Pearl Haven residence on the north shore Clare and Paul have 3 grown children living in Canada. When not working, Clare enjoys paddling, hiking, snorkeling and exploring. |

Rotarian Tree Planting Date: January 23, 2021 Metro Rotary is contributing a total of 9 teams of ten people each to go out over nine different Saturday’s over the coming months and plant some 900 trees. The work is fun, interesting, and simple. The countryside is beautiful and its just a pleasure to be there, let along to contribute to the vegetation. Holes are pre-dug, the small trees come in small plastic containers that are removed, the tree placed in the hole, two food capsules added, fill up the hole, and on to the next tree! Enclosed shoes are recommended, as are gloves and trowels. This is one of the easiest ways to feel productive and spend time in a beautiful environment. Come out and Joint the Fun!! The team leaders for those days will be looking for help, just give them a call and sign up! |
