Quality of Health Care

Dr. Susan Burlacoff, 53, of Toronto is currently being charged with submitting $5000.00 worth of false claims to OHIP, writes Peter Small of the Toronto Star.

Dr. Thomas Gutheil, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School has testified before defence counsel David Porter. She has traits of paranoia, narcissism and borderline personality disorder, he said. High intelligence and organizational skills have helped disguise her problems, he said.

What is the state of medical care in the outlying reaches populated by First Nation people and who is taking the time to ensure that we are getting proper care?

We need to review, evaluate and determine our own medical care as FN people.

There are obvious shortcomings within our systems, even as we think that we are being given the best of care.
