Meet our Paediatrician Team

Dr. Amanda Bates

Hi! My name is Amanda Bates, and have been working as a pediatrician since January 2019 in Belleville and Kingston area.

I completed my undergraduate degree at the University of Ottawa, my medical school in my hometown of Thunder Bay Ontario at the Northern Ontario School of Medicine. I recently completed my residency in Pediatrics at Queen's University.

In my spare time, I enjoy time with my time with my family and dog and being active outdoors. I have enjoyed my time working at BGH with the group, and am excited to officially be joining such a great group of Paediatricians!

Dr. Ruth Levis

Hello my name is Ruth Levis. I recently joined our Belleville Paediatric Clinic after completing my Pediatrics training in Kingston through Queen's University, where I also did my medical school.

I am interested in Global/International Health, and have taken several trips to learn about medicine in other countries, including Ghana, Peru, and Bolivia. I am fluent in French and Spanish.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and exploring Belleville and the surrounding areas, swimming, reading, and travelling.

Dr. Sarah Waterston

I am proud to be a part of the paediatrics team here in Belleville.  I did my pediatric training at CHEO in a rural training stream that took me to Sudbury and North Bay. My first pediatrician position was in Gatineau, Quebec at a regional centre similar to the one we have in Belleville.  I worked in Gatineau doing consulting and hospital based paediatrics for over five years. I moved to this area and started working at QHC in 2017 and in 2019 I joined the Paediatric Diabetes Team.  When not working I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, and exploring the beautiful region we live in.
