    Joyce stated he understands there’s a shortage of these specialists across the country, but government has had five years to find one.

    Bay of Islands MHA Eddie Joyce is not letting the lack of an oncologist  at the Radiation unit in the new Corner Brook hospital be forgotten. In the House of Assembly this week, Joyce stated he understands there’s a shortage of these specialists across the country, but government has had five years to find one. Joyce says maybe more incentives would attract these specialists. A new hospital for Corner Brook was announced in 2015.
