One of the worst imo. Wait time is decent because they rush you out of there.
The doctors there suck at diagnosing and it take multiple visits for them to get it right.

The more common problem are patients who can't speak English. I've seen situations where the doctor asks in perfect English "Where does it hurt?" and the patient has no clue what he/she is saying. Fortunately, the patient usually brings a relative who speaks one of our official languages.
Really? Usually medical conversations between Doctor and Patient happen in the examining room, yet you've witnessed this several times in public? You aren't making up yet another tall tail are you?
Really? You seem to have 1000X the number of unusual things occurring in your life compared to the rest of us. Are you sure it really happened?
I have seen this many times. There are some places where doctors and hospital staff see patients in an open area where patients are only separated by drapery. Or in some cases no separation at all. In some instances, the family member was there to interpret so as to make sure the patient and family member knew exactly what the Doctor was saying. Other times, the patient was in no condition to understand fully what the Doctor was saying so he/she wanted a family member there to make sure what was being said was followed.
You missed my point, check out SkyRiders posting history. About 75% of his posts are made-up non-sense.
He takes common/obvious information and either 1) poses a pretend to be naive (stupid) question or 2) twist it into a anti-whatever statement. If you follow his posting history (I'm cursed with a good memory) over the years and many handles, you would be left rolling on the floor laughing. I enjoyed his story about the strippers that would give him 10 free dances in the VIP because it was less boring for them than working the floor. -OR- Strippers would come to his house and dance for him because it was more comfortable than the VIP -OR- his latest, he's a Sikh warrior in another life.
It's no secret that people have phones with cameras. If you don't want a video like this of yourself posted on the internet then act like a human being.
Sorry, I don't go into everyone's posting history especially guys with over 10,000 posts,lol. Just wanted to confirm that what he did was was correct. Not taking sides
I wonder if there would be same sense of outrage if a black person asked for a black doctor?
Or a Muslim woman demanded to see a Muslim doctor?
The reason I ask is because I have to wonder when I read the news about a black graduation from the University of Toronto. Imagine the outrage if it was a white graduation. It's baffling to me that any black person would want their kids to be in a black or "Africentric" school. So many people fought so hard for equal rights and yet a lot of black people think that this is a good idea. George Wallace must be laughing in his grave right now.

I agree with you that people need to learn to be civil to each other again. But I also think that too many people are "phone happy" as if it allows them to news reporters. More often than not, they're just getting in the way and not helping the situation. I recently saw an accident at a distance recently where an elderly man got hit by a car as it was backing up in a parking lot. Thankfully there were people to call an ambulance, but there were also a number of rubber-neckers with their phones out recording the proceedings.
I'd be equally outraged if any person asked for a doctor based on any characteristic that has no bearing on their abilities to perform their duty.
I don't understand the black grad thing or black centric schools but as outsiders it is not for us to understand. The black grad seems to be a student run thing so to me that's no different than university having a Chinese students association. My ability to attend that club or grad has no effect on my future so I would save my outrage for something that would affect a student's future.
Certainly nothing wrong with requesting a certain type of doctor and leaving it at that.
I'm sure Females request female doctors,non English speaking request doctors that speak their language all the time.
And it's a very normal request as well.
In this case the woman did not just stop at the request but went further almost like a spoilt child throwing a tantrum at the toy store, when she did not get what she wanted.
Unprovoked,she pretty much went on to justify her request for the white doctor by denigrating and attacking minority doctors in a racially prejudiced way.
She also did it at a volume which involved the whole waiting room. You raise a good point that a request is far different from a demand and she could have kept her reasoning for her request private.
Are you really worried about his English when his finger is up your butt, or just how quickly he can get it out of there?
Would help with bedside manner during such critical periods! :wink:
This women chose to discriminate and did it with vocal rational partly because there was no emergency situation. I wonder what would have happened had she gone to the ER and done that ? She probably did the doctor there a favour because ignorant and stupid people like her would never be satisfied by any treatment that would have been rendered there. If she delayed her son's treatment with this rational and as a result he suffered damage then what? Would neglect come into play and what would be the role of Children's Aid or the police in charging her with child neglect?
You and I and I'm sure many others have seen this many time but that other member hasn't so you and I must be wrong and he must be right. (Sarcasm)
Most likely she will ask for a female doctor.
I don't see anything wrong with that. I know of lots of women who don't wear a burka, who are of other religion and they prefer a female doctor.
You are comparing apples to oranges here.
The news outlets should set up a meeting with the woman in this thread and the woman in this thread https://terb.cc/vbulletin/showthrea...derate-flag-at-Scarborough-community-festival.
That would definitely be worth posting on line.
