Looking forward to discussing with @craignorriscbc @CBCKW891 the importance of protecting vulnerable patients like #elderly, #poor or #rural patients when #virtualcare is changed in the province by @OntariosDoctors & @ONThealth @OntHeartDocs – at Waterloo, Ontario
Local doctor @Dr_Pandey_Heart says a proposed new agreement between @OntariosDoctors and the @ongov could mean the end of telephone consultations. This could hurt patients in rural and remote areas. He joins me to explain, tomorrow (Friday) morning at 7:10 @CBCKW891.
