BELLEVILLE – A physician from Bancroft has been ordered by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario [2] to not provide any medical exemptions related to COVID-19.
The College’s Investigations, Complaints and Reports Committee ordered Dr. Mark Raymond Trozzi [3] to stop issuing medical exemptions in relation to COVID-19 vaccines, masks or testing as of 11:59 p.m. on Friday.
The order also requires Dr. Trozzi to post signs stating the restrictions, with translations in any language(s) he services in, at all the locations he practices, in a clearly visible and secure spot, at all times regardless of his physical presence.
These also include waiting rooms, examination rooms and consulting rooms.
“If providing care in a virtual setting, Dr. Trozzi shall display the sign to the patient at the outset of the patient encounter,” says the CPSO website.
