The Scarborough Hospital is Canada’s largest urban community hospital. Yet what surprises many patients is the personal attention they receive from the more than 700 physicians practicing here. Many of these skilled medical professionals have spent years here, caring for generations of Scarborough residents. Some are heavily involved in the community, giving back through various organizations. And some have taken their charitable natures to a more global level, actively seeking opportunities to share their medical expertise with developing nations around the world.
These profiles are a tribute to the excellent physicians who make The Scarborough Hospital such an integral part of our diverse, dynamic community.
Dr. Larry Zoberman with Nurse Clinician Sonia Johnson
It takes a special kind of devotion to focus one’s professional career on the needs of palliative care patients and their families. For Dr. Larry Zoberman and the rest of the team in The Scarborough Hospital’s Palliative Care Unit, the medical care is just as important at end-of-life as it is at any other time in a person’s lifespan.
Dr. Kevin Grant has a passion for mind puzzles.
After two months of living with severe back and right leg pain, and finding no relief in sight, Terry Bergeron found himself in the Emergency Department at The Scarborough Hospital. There, the on-call physician referred him to Orthopedic Surgeon Dr. Kevin Grant. Within 48 hours of meeting Dr. Grant, Terry not only had his diagnosis, but was operated on.
It’s not easy having a cheerful outlook on life when you’re living with metastatic cancer. But for Scarborough resident Nelda Lozinski, “For now, I get to see the sunrise; I get to see the sunset.”
The 67-year old grandmother was first diagnosed with colon cancer in 2006 after having a colonoscopy at the Birchmount campus of The Scarborough Hospital. By that time, however, the cancer had already spread to her liver. After an operation on her colon, Nelda was referred to the Oncology Clinic at the General campus for chemotherapy.
That’s where she met Medical Oncologist Dr. Henry Krieger and asked him to take her on as a patient.
Dr. Moddel with patient Kam Lan
Married 42 years, Kam Lan and Che Yuen Chan shuffle towards Neurologist Dr. Garry Moddel and offer up a holiday greeting card. It’s a gesture that is meant for all the staff at The Scarborough Hospital, and follows on the heels of a glowing letter written by Kam Lan about her recent medical care here.
Dr. Sarah Wong with patient Sariana Sabbagh
A patient’s plate of chocolate chip cookies and her complimentary letter go a long way in brightening the day of TSH staff and Plastic Surgeon Dr. Sarah Wong. That’s exactly what 18-year old Sariana Sabbagh wanted to accomplish after her first-ever overnight stay, in this case, to The Scarborough Hospital General campus.
