A Port Hardy, B.C., doctor was temporarily barred from practicing emergency medicine in the Island Health region the same day he publicly called for the resignation of a senior Island Health leader.
A Port Hardy, B.C., doctor has been temporarily barred from practicing emergency medicine in the Island Health region.
Nataros says his suspension has other doctors scrambling to staff the two emergency departments that he works at in Port Hardy and Salt Spring Island, B.C. "Because of Dr. Nataros' misleading statements, because he has made this issue public in a very false way, I have to provide this information to you," he told CTV News.
Nataros says he believes the patient complaint was "coerced" and written by an Island Health official.
