Dr. Dominik Nowak, the new president of the Ontario Medical Association, was officially recognized in Sudbury last night as the OMA held its annual general meeting in this city. The meeting is a closed affair and the media were not invited.
"I'd love to see a northern human health resources strategy to finally level out the playing field between different parts of our healthcare system, including what people need in the North." Nowak said the OMA and the province need to make medium and long-term plans to ensure that new family doctors can move into Northern communities and be successful.
"So for example, there's a big shortage of maternity and delivery care, adult obstetrics care in many Northern communities. So that last part, how do we make sure that doctors have those opportunities to get the training they need to serve their communities in terms of some of those special areas that their communities need?" Nowak said.
