The appellant physician appealed a decision of the Health Professions Appeal and Review Board (HPARB) confirming the suspension of his hospital privileges until he completed a remedial anaesthetist review program.
The appellant argued he was denied procedural fairness when confronted with multiple complaints without prior notice.
The Divisional Court found that while the initial process was flawed, the hospital cured the defect by agreeing to an independent expert review.
Applying a standard of reasonableness, the Court held the HPARB properly concluded there was a legitimate concern for patient safety warranting remedial action.
The appeal was dismissed.
