Dr. LeMesurier (pronounced by Dr. W. K. Lindsay as “le measure”) was Surgeon-in-Chief of the Hospital for Sick Children.

In 1955, he received the ASPS Honorary Citation Award presented to a senior ASPS member in recognition of their contributions to the specialty through clinical contributions, humanitarian actions enhancing the specialty or demonstrated leadership within plastic surgery.
