Doctor Leaves Dead Man
Hospitals are notorious for keeping patients waiting in the emergency room for hours. Just take a trip down to a local hospital and you will soon understand what I am talking about. People have ended up waiting in emergency rooms from 2 to 8 hours. Only then to be attended to by a rude nurse or medical doctor who dismisses your concern with little regard. This seems to be the state of the current Ontario health system.
However, nothing can be as worse as the story out of Montreal reported by the Globe and Mail on Thursday April 23, 2009.
A 77 year old man attended at a private medical clinic in Montreal and was told to wait his turn. While waiting his heart stopped and his dentures fell out onto the floor. The doctor came out performed a simple check up, realized he had died and simply left him. The doctor made no attempt to revive the patient and instead instructed the nurse to call 911 and walked away as patients in the waiting room looked on with horror.
