"Unfortunately in our province, we are facing waits that can be 10, 12, even up to 16 weeks depending on where you are in Alberta". - Dr. Paul Parks on 630 CHED regarding the cancer care wait times putting Alberta's cancer patients at risk.
“The impact is real and we’re seeing it more and more and that’s why we are raising this alarm now." Alberta's lack of oncology recruitment makes diagnosing late-stage cancers in the emergency room a norm.
