More than 200 people, left without a family doctor when Dr. Ferial Ladak was forced to close her Lennoxville medical clinic last fall after failing the province’s French-language test, will be pleased to know their popular physician is doing just fine, and very much appreciated, just an hour away.
Ladak is presently in-house physician and director of Emergency Room Services at the Colebrook Hospital in New Hampshire.
Effective April 1, she’ll become the hospital’s Chief Medical Officer.
Her former patients in Lennoxville, however, are not faring quite so well and most have not succeeded in finding a new family doctor.
Why, they ask, would Quebec, with its chronic shortage of family doctors, turn away such a highly-qualified and sought-after doctor, leaving hundreds of English-speaking and elderly patients without a family doctor?
