Alam is also one of the creators of the Concerned Ontario Doctors Facebook page and www.carenotcuts.ca website, launched in the fall to counteract the spin from the Kathleen Wynne government and Health Minister Eric Hoskins that doctors are greedy and need to be better controlled. The FB page now has 11,000 members. Doctors are upset with the unilateral cuts to their fees of 7% — fees which include their overhead, the cost of their staff and supplies, despite Hoskins’ attempts to portray that decrease as strictly impacting on their take-home pay.
