whole medical system in canada sucks
Our government rather spend money on some useless doctors who will have you come for 2-3 times before they would help you , WCB will rather pay off wage losses to People who take stress leave( instead these people should be charged with sexual harassment but employers think differently ) and the ones who injure them-self with small stapler ,My wife worked with broken bone(she didnt know of) in her foot for over two weeks and when she had enough , she reported the injury, she had to take 4 weeks off work and buy foot/ankle splint WCB declined her claim not willing to pay even $200 for splint ,
thank god ,my private insurance through my job reimbursed us they took their sweet time but at least they did aright thing.
with this system you cant trust any one have always go to get second opinion . sorry about your mom , if i were you I wont even talk to him , check with lawyer if you can get some settlement for your trouble
