OMA LGBTQ lobby.

Dear Toronto Physicians, Resident Doctors and Medical students:

We are organizing a group of Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgendered Queer (LGBTQ) physicians, resident doctors, future doctors and our allies to march in solidarity in the 2013 Toronto Pride Parade!!!      

Goals of the event:

1) To combat homophobia within the medical community and society at large

2) To show the public that there are outspoken LGBTQ physicians and physician allies, and help attract media attention to this important issue           

On June 30, 2013 please march with us! We will be dressing in hospital scrubs and stethoscopes.

Interested individuals can RSVP by visiting our Facebook event page at https://www.facebook.com/events/121540071384439/?fref=ts or email mdtorontoprideparade@gmail.com.

OHIP requires rectal exam as part of General assessment

OHIP demands rectal examination of children and adults to bill for a General assessment. This could be perceived as a sexual assault by parents & patients. OMA Board does not object to this absurd requirement.

Recent case of 69y. MD charged with sexual assault of a minor.
