Dr Dymond led a distinguished career as a medical biochemist. After his first position with the Department of Health in Charlottetown, P.E.I., he accepted a position in 1980 as medical biochemist at the Victoria General Hospital, Halifax. He was then appointed as assistant director, and subsequently, Director, of Laboratory Services at Camp Hill Hospital. Following the Camp Hill Medical Centre merger, he became the consultant medical biochemist at the Halifax Infirmary, where he remained until 1997, also serving as Deputy Chief in the Department of Pathology.

He made many valuable contributions to the academic community, particularly in the area of graduate and postgraduate teaching, and in the training of laboratory technologists. He cared a great deal about all his students, and countless honours-level science students, graduate students and residents have benefited from his dedication and enthusiasm for teaching. Dr Dymond served as Director of the Medical Biochemistry Residency Training Program (1981-1992), and also served as Director of the General Pathology Residency Training Program (1999-2003). In 1996, he was presented an Honourary Diploma from the Nova Scotia Community College.
