3. Royal Victoria Hospital turning away new patients for colonoscopies

MONTREAL - The Royal Victoria Hospital has stopped accepting new patients for colonoscopies for the foreseeable future, but is not suggesting alternative hospitals to those in need of the diagnostic procedure, The Gazette has learned.

Meanwhile, some private colonoscopy clinics are offering promotional discounts to attract more patients. And many of the gastroenterologists who work at those clinics also practise in hospitals that have lengthy waits.

A number of patients have told The Gazette that gastroenterologists often promote their private clinics during consultations at the hospital.

“They’re cutting back in the hospitals to work at their private centres, and they’re forcing people to have no other options,” he said.
