Patients at the Institute of Reconstructive Sciences in Medicine (iRSM) in Edmonton, Alberta, which specializes in face and neck cancer reconstruction, are concerned about the potential loss of their main doctor. The physician, who has been practicing at iRSM for 23 years, is highly specialized in bone-anchored implant technology and has helped numerous patients regain their quality of life after surgeries and treatments. The patients fear that without him, they may not be able to access the specialized care they need. Covenant Health, which runs the Misericordia Community Hospital where iRSM is located, has stated that they are recruiting qualified prosthodontists for iRSM’s team, but concerns remain about the availability of such specialists in the province.
