Thorold City Council is addressing the city’s doctor shortage.
Councillor Carmen DeRose emphasized the need for a concerted effort to bring more physicians to Thorold.
Discussions included potential incentive programs to attract doctors, similar to those used in other cities.
Concerns were raised about the effectiveness and sustainability of such incentive programs.
The council plans to bring the issue to the region’s attention and invite a physician recruitment specialist to a future meeting.
