Maurice McGregor, OC (born 24 March 1920) is a South African-born cardiologist, academic leader and public policy advocate who has had a major impact on the practice of medicine, working largely from his base at McGill University in Montreal in the late 1950s into the second decade of the 21st century. After 13 years as the first chair of the pioneering Healthcare Technology Assessment Unit based at McGill, he retired in 2013, though he remained a consultant.[1] McGregor was recognized for his "lifetime of outstanding achievement" with an Order of Canada award, conferred in 2010 by the Governor General of Canada.[2]
