2018-03-27T12:29:00.002-04:00

COURTS SYMPATHETIC TO CLAIMANTS. AWARDS CAN REACH $200,000

IMPORTANT TO HAVE DETAILED DOCUMENTATION, ACCORDING TO AIRD AND BERLIS LLP PARTNER LORENZO LISI

SAFEST AND CHEAPEST TO CALL LAWYER AT TRIAGE STAGE OF CLAIM. SETTLEMENT CAN BE CHEAPER THAN DEFENSIVE LITIGATTION.

THIS IS RISK TO BE CONSIDERED BEFORE SETTING UP A PRACTICE AS SELF-EMPLOYED PRACTITIONER.

LESS RISK IN PAYING COMMERCIAL OFFICE FOR USE OF SPACE. AND STAFF AT USUALLY ABOUT 30 PER CENT OF BILLING.. GREAT ADVANTAGE OF WORKING IN A HOSPITAL OR PUBLIC HEALTH CLINIC. CPSO OFFICE INSPECTOR NURSES MORE LIKELY TO APPROVE OFFICES IN GOVERNMENT FUNDED BUILDINGS.

TORONTO CRIMINAL LAWYER LIAM O'CONNOR WHO IS DEFENDING TORONTO WESTERN HOSPITAL NEUROSURGEON SHAMJI POINTS OUT THAT AS LONG AS A DOCTOR IS ALIVE THE MD CAN BE CHARGED FOR FREUDIAN MISBEHAVIOUR .

THIS SEVERE RISK IS NOT EMPHASISED BY OMA LEGAL DEPARTMENT OF FOUR SALARIED LAWYERS.

IT IS IMPERATIVE TO HAVE A PROFESSIONAL WITNESS, (SAY RPN), PRESENT WHEN EXAMINING A PERSON OF ANY GENDER.

A PROBLEM EXISTS WITH PSYCHIATRY. A POSSIBLE SOLUTION IS TO RENT OFFICES
AT ORGANISATIONS SUCH AS REGUS WHICH HAVE A BUSY COMMON AREAS OR IN HOSPITAL CLINICS. PRIVATE OFFICES ARE A MAJOR RISK IN PSYCHIATRY

AS FOR UNCHAPERONED HOUSE CALLS; DIFFICULT TO DEFEND A COMPLAINT IF NO WITNESS.

IN PRESENT POLITICAL CLIMATE BEST NOT TO PUT MEDICAL LICENSE IN DANGER . BY ANY 'POLITICALLY INCORRECT' QUESTION OR STATEMENT AND BY ANY MOVEMENT OR GESTURE THAT COULD IMPLY A SENSUAL OVERTONE. BEST TO USE FORMAL SALUTATION INC FAMILY NAME. FIRST NAME ONLY FOR CHILDREN SAY UP TO 16. SOME ETHNIC COMMUNITIES DISLIKE DIFFERENT GENDERS SHAKING HANDS.

CMAJ ARTICLE ON PRIMARY ALDOSTERONISM (CONN SYNDROME) -- PREVALENCE UP TO 10 PER CENT OF RESISTANT HYPERTENSIVES.

2017-12-08T14:37:00.003-05:00

A FEW YEARS AGO, A TORONTO LECTURE BY MELBOURNE PRINCE HENRY HOSP PROFESSOR JOHN FUNDER AC MD PHD FRCP FRACP CHANGED DIAGNOSTIC POLICY IN ONTARIO. CARDIOLOGISTS, ENDOCRINOLOGISTS, NEPHROLOGISTS, NEUROLOGISTS AND UROLOGISTS, STARTED LOOKING FOR CONN, CARCINOID AND PHAEOCHROMOCYTOMA, (CCP) AFTER PROFESSOR FUNDER STATED THAT ABOUT 10 PER CENT OF RESISTANT HYPERTENSIVES HAVE CONN SYNDROME. AS EARLY AS 1959 IN LONDON,UK IT WAS OBLIGATORY TO LOOK FOR THE CCP TRIAD IN EVERY HYPERTENSIVE PATIENT AND NOT JUST TREAT THE BP WITHOUT A PRECISE DIAGNOSIS. JFUNDER@UQ.EDU.AU

"ISABEL" DIAGNOSTIC PROGRAM NOW CAN GIVE RESULTS IN SECONDS AFTER ENTERING RESISTANT HYPERTENSION, PALPITATIONS, AND NOCTURNAL POLYURIA.- A SYMPTOM AND SIGN OMITTED COMPLETELY IN THE CMAJ PAPER.

SIMPLE GP TEST FOR CONN SYNDROME IS TO GIVE ALDACTONE. BP FALLS DRAMATICALLY.

INVESTIGATIONS INCLUDE POTASSIUM, ALDOSTERONE, RENIN, DIAGNOSTIC RADIOLOGY AND ADRENAL VEIN SAMPLING, REMOVAL OF THE ADRENAL BY ENDOSCOPY CAN CURE THE HYPERTENSION.COMPLETELY.

(COMMENTS BY DR A FRANKLIN WHO ATTENDED PROF FUNDER'S LECTURE)

DELAY IN DIAGNOSIS ,OFTEN FOR YEARS, IS ASSOCIATED WITH PRESENT SOCIALIST POLICY OF NOT ADMITTING PATIENTS FOR DIAGNOSTIC INVESTIGATION. ALDOSTERONE AND RENIN BEST TESTED AFTER A NIGHT'S REST AND BEFORE GETTING OUT OF BED. IN TORONTO, PRIVATE LABS WEILL DO HOUSE CALLS FOR A MODEST $30 BUT MOST DOCS ARE FRIGHTENED TO EVEN TELL PATIENTS ABOUT THIS SERVICE AS THE MAJORITY HAVE BEEN SOCIALLY ENGINEERED TO BELIEVE THAT ALL MEDICINE MUST BE FREE IN A WELFARE STATE. THE PATIENT COULD MAKE A COMPLAINT TO THE ONT COLLEGE OF PHYS AND SURGEONS LEADING TO A TIME WASTING INVESTIGATION OF MALPRACTICE.

COLOUR VISION DEFICIENCY IN ONTARIO DOCTORS.

2017-12-06T19:13:00.000-05:00

SAY AT LEAST 20,000 ACTIVE ONTARIO DOCS. AND SAY 10,000 EACH FEMALE AND MALES.

PREVALENCE IN MALES 8 PER CENT; FEMALES 0.5 PER CENT. - USA NATIONAL EYE INSTITUTE.

APPROX 800 MALE AND 50 FEMALE DOCTORS AFFECTED.

SANYO HAS PRODUCED A TV WHICH ASSISTS THOSE WITH COLOUR VISION DEFICIENCY.

\N= NIOSH = NATIONAL INSTITUTE OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH

DURING 2003 SARS EPIDEMIC N96 DUCKBILL MASKS WERE DISTRIBUTED FREE TO TORONTO DOCTORS BY TORONTO PUBLIC HEALTH DIRECTED BY LATE DR SHEELA BASRUR O.ONT MD MPH FRCPC. ACCORDING TO SEVERAL COMMUNICATIONS TO CMAJ BY JOHN H, LANGE OF PITTSBURGH,PA ENVIROSAFE TRAINING AND CONSULTING INC N 95 MASK IS NOT SUITABLE TO PROTECT AGAINST VIRUSES, ONLY LARGER BACTERIA. ALSO RESPIRATORS HAVE TO BE FITTED. BEARD STUBBLE BREAKS THE SEAL.

DOCTORS WERE NOT INFORMED ABOUT $12 N100 (WITH VALVE) ; N95 COSTS $1-2. DR NESTOR YANGA AND TWO NURSES DIED FROM SARS.

ESTATE OF GP DR YANGA RECEIVED NO GOVERNMENT COMPENSATION AS HE WAS SELF-EMPLOYED. THE ESTATES OF SARS-KILLED HOSPITAL NURSES RECEIVED HIGH COMPENSATION.

TORONTO TIPS

2017-10-29T09:13:00.000-04:00

AVOID DOWNTOWN AT WEEKENDS DUE TO ROAD CLOSURES CAUSED BY VARIOUS CHARITY CYCLING, RUNS AND WALKS AND ETHNIC STREET FESTIVALS. A $5 TAXI RIDE CAB BECOME $20 CAUSED BY TRAFFIC CHAOS.

BEST TO HIRE LIMO FROM A TORONTO LIMO SERVICE. MANY LOCAL TAXIS HAVE POOR SCHOCK ABSORBERS; DRIVERS OFTEN DO NOT SPEAK FLUENT ENGLISH; ARE VISUALLY IMPAIRED AS CAN BE PREDICTED BY AGED DRIVERS NOT WEARING SPECTACLES.

SECURITY POOR IN MOST HOTELS WITH INNER SHOPS AND RESTAURANTS. SOME HAVE FLOORS WITH SPECIAL ACCESS CARDS. BEST TO STAY AT PRIVATE CLUBS SUCH AS ROYAL CANADIAN MILITARY INSTITUTE AND UNIVERSITY CLUB, BOTH ON UNIVERSITY AVENUE. RATES ARE CHEAPER THAN HOTELS. FOR DOCTORS, THE ONT. MED. ASSN HAS A COMFORTABLE LOUNGE AT 150 BLOOR ST ,9TH FLOOR. ACROSS THE ROAD FROM ROYAL ONT MUSEUM.(WITH INTERNATIONALLY FAMOUS CHINESE COLLECTION IMPORTED BY CANADIAN MISSIONARIES AND GARDINER CERAMIC MUSEUM). OMA IN SAME BUILDING AS LOUIS VUITTON AND TIFFANY. YORKVILLE AREA SAFEST. SIMILAR TO LONDON MAYFAIR AND BOND STREET, ART GALLERY OF ONTARIO IS IN CHINATOWN. AGO IS NOTED FOR HENRY MOORE'S PLASTER MODELS OF HIS SCULPTURES.

BEWARE OF BEGGARS IN DOWNTOWN AREA; SOME BLOCKING PAVEMENT. POLICE DO NOT REMOVE. MENTALLY ILL MOVED TO STREETS AFTER CLOSURE OF TORONTO'S TWO MAIN PSYCH HOSPITALS. BASED ON MARXIST-LENINIST SOCIAL ENGINEERING. AVOID RISK OF CONFRONTATION BY NOT WALKING.

IN CASE OF MEDICAL URGENCY DURING WEEK, ''CLEVELAND CLINIC CANADA' AND 'MEDCAN' OFFER PRIVATE GP SERVICE. SUNNYBROOK HOSPITAL IN WEALTHY AREA.
HAS MINIMAL DRUG ADDICTS, KNIFINGS AND GUNSHOT WOUNDS.

FOR PRIVATE INPATIENT TREATMENT AND AT WEEKENDS QUICKEST TO TRAVEL TO LEWISTON,USA, (OPPOSITE NIAGARA ON THE LAKE) AT MOUNT ST MARY HOSPITAL. ABOUT 2.5 HOUR LIMO DRIVE FOR $400. PASSPORT REQUIRED.CLINIC . WAITING TIME IN DOWNTOWN TORONTO HOSPITALS CAN BE SEVERAL HOURS WITH NO CERTAINTY OF SEEING A SPECIALIST. WAITING TIME DEPENDS ON TRIAGE BY A NURSE. CLEVELAND CLINIC CANADA CAN ARRANGE AIR TRANSPORT TO USA CLEVELAND CLINIC HOSPITAL

MEDICO- LEGAL SOCIETY OF TORONTO

2017-10-13T17:54:00.001-04:00

COMMENT: IMPORTANT TO JOIN. LEARN HOW LAWYERS THINK. VISIT POLICE FORENSIC BUILDING. MEET TORONTO LAWYERS. AS QC NO LONGER AWARDED FOR LEFT-WING POLITICAL REASONS, IT IS DIFFICULT KNOW WHO IS A SUPERIOR TRIAL LAWYER. GOING TO ONE OF THE TOP FIRMS HELPS. AT MED-LEGAL DINNERS A DOCTOR CAN MEET LAWYERS BOTH INTROVERTED SOLICITORS AND EXTROVERT BARRISTERS/.

CMPA APPOINTED LAWYERS ARE NOT ALWAYS THE BEST. FOR CPSO AN AGGRESSIVE CRIMINAL LAWYER IS PREFERED TO A GENTLE SOLICITOR-TYPE THE ALL FEMALE CPSO LAWYERS ARE EXTREMELY AGGRESSIVE/ A DOCTOR NEEDS A SIMILAR TYPE TO WIN. REMEMBER THE CPSO TRIBUNAL IS NOT A COURT AND SO THE PROOF REQUIRED FROM PROSECUTOR NEED NOT BE AS STRICT AS IN A COURT. ALSO THE TRIBUNAL IS A MIX OF PART-TIME OLDER DOCS AND POLITICAL APPOINTEES.

IT IS IMPERATIVE TO HAVE A SINKING FUND OF $100,000 FOR A COURT APPEAL TO AMATEUR TRIBUNAL VERDICTS, UNLIKE UK, CMPA DOES NOT FUND APPEALS. THERE IS NO LEGAL INSURANCE FOR APPEALS.

CPSO STATS SAY A MD WILL HAVE A SERIOUS COMPLAINT EVERY 20 YEARS. AS CPSO AUTOMATICALLY SENDS MD OR NURSE INVESTIGATORS AT 70 & THEN EVERY 5 YEARS. BEST TO STOP CLINICAL PRACTICE AT MAX. 69. ORGANISING CLINICS AS ADMINISTRATOR AVOIDS CPSO CONTACT. LEAVING CLINICAL PRACTICE AT 50 IS EVEN SAFER WITH LESS RISK OF CPSO LITIGATION.

MANY SMART ONT DOCS GET CALIFORNIA AND/OR FLORIDA LICENCES SOON AFTER GRADUATION. EASY THEN TO RELOCATE AFTER CHILDREN LEAVE LOCAL UNIVERSITY.

HOSPITAL SECURITY; TIME TO TAKE PREVENTIVE ACTION. COPY SECURITY MEASURES AT LEGISLATIVE BUILDINGS .
