Johnson questions doctor monitoring
At least one city councillor isn't satisfied with how doctor recruitment is monitored. Rebecca Johnsons' comments followed a presentation from the citys' Family Physician Recruiter. Johnson questioned why the number of doctors who leave the city aren't ever counted. She wants to know if the efforts to attract physicians are paying off, adding she'd like to see results from the quarter million dollar program. City officials say they don't have the means to track which doctors leave.
