His wife, also a denturist, operates the practice with him and he also operates one on Strathroy. He was first contacted by Dr. Hany and van Maancn about a year ago and decided he coutd fill a need in Seaforth. He is on Seaforth on Mondays but Dr. Hany said they will look at having Gillooly here a little more often if the demand for his service grows. Gillooly looks after his own lab work and said that helps them provide a better service to their patients since he is involved in the service from start to finish. "They're getting a more customized product. I can spend more time with a patient -to make sure they're happy with the project." he THE HURON EXPOSITOR, March 3, 19111I-7 said. Dr. Hany said they are glad to have Gillooly here because some of their patients were having to leave town to find denturist services. Now, he said they can work as a team and can consult one another about their patients' needs.
