Nunavut’s Department of Health is investigating a complaint against a licensed medical practitioner in the territory, but is not sharing details about who is under investigation or the nature of the complaint.
“Access to information is restricted to protect confidentiality and the integrity of the process,” said Chelsea Halvorson, a communications consultant for the Department of Health, in an email.
The department issued a public call in December for members to serve on future boards of inquiry under the Medical Professions Act.
