Board grants Smoling access to Woodstock General Hospital
The Ontario Hospital Appeal Board ordered Woodstock General Hospital to grant visiting and surgical privileges to Dr. Leslie Smoling for the remainder of the year. The hospital had rejected his application last December citing concerns about its image and a claimed 15 year gap in his background. Smoling explained he fled charges in 1968 but they were withdrawn, and he stated he practised in Sydney until 1982 before helping Morgentaler set up a Toronto abortion clinic.
