Dr John Rice has now fully retired from his practice and all other clinical responsibilities. As such he feels it is no longer appropriate for him to act as our "resident ent", especially in what is an ever increasing litigious society we live in.PHISA would like to thank Dr Rice for the both the service and support he has provided to South Australian families. We also thank him for his ongoing support for PHISA and its activities, particularly in the advocating for the needs of deaf and hearing impaired children and their families. PHISA thanks Dr Rice for being our resident ent and for the advice that he has provided to many via this site.
