Canadas healthcare. When they aren't betraying their patients they are betraying their co-workers.

Reminds me of how a few other agencies operate...


A Toronto family doctor gave up his licence and promised never to reapply just before a discipline panel found Friday he drugged a nurse’s food and drink at his North York clinic and left her in the basement while he continued to see patients

Dr. Shahab Nahvi, who also had privileges at Scarborough Centenary Hospital, even drugged himself with Rohypnol — the notorious sedative drug, nicknamed “roofies” — to cast suspicion elsewhere after being interviewed by police about the incident in May 2021, the five-member discipline panel was told.

Calling his misconduct an “egregious” breach of trust, College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario prosecutor Kathleen Farrell said she would have argued for the doctor’s licence to be revoked had he not already resigned.
