Brandon pediatricians threaten on call strike at Brandon General
Dr. Emmett Elwes and Dr. Low-Ying announce they will stop on call coverage at Brandon General as of March 13 after months of failed talks with Manitoba Health. They cite 16 hour days since 1995, uneven pay, and staffing gaps stressing Brandon pediatric care while Winnipeg doctors are paid far more for similar weekend duties.
