The Beacon Dental Group begain originally as the dental practice of Dr. Donald Chaloner who opened his practice in Beurepaire Village in 1955. Many of the original patients from that era remain patients to this day. Dr. van Wijlen took over the clinic in 1985 after a short associateship with Dr. Chaloner. After 18 years the clinic moved to its present location on the waterfront in Ste. Anne-de-Bellevue.
