Ontario College of Physicians suspends rural family doctor for 'inappropriate' COVID-19 treatments, advice

Ontario’s College of Physicians and Surgeons (CPSO) has temporarily suspended the licence of Dr. Patrick Phillips, an emergency room doctor whose social media comments promoting misinformation during the pandemic landed him before a disciplinary committee.

Ontario's College of Physicians and Surgeons (CPSO) has temporarily suspended the licence of Dr. Patrick Phillips, a physician whose social media comments promoting misinformation during the pandemic landed him before a disciplinary committee. 
Phillips, who worked as an emergency room physician in Englehart, Ont., had previously been called before the college's disciplinary committee to answer to allegations of misconduct. 
The allegations are, at least in part, connected to Phillips's statements on social media, where he once had a sizeable presence. Nearly 40,000 users followed him on Twitter before his account was suspended. 
In one instance, in a series of tweets on Sept. 25, 2021, Phillips drew a comparison between pandemic-related public health measures and the treatment of people with disabilities in Nazi Germany.
He has also called Ontario's vaccine certificate system "illegal" and claimed it would be used to "deny medical care, food, banking and shelter" to unvaccinated people.
In a video posted to the Reddit group LockdownSkepticism, Phillips appears in a video questioning the risk of asymptomatic spread of COVID-19 as "negligible to non-existent." 
"It is alleged that Dr. Phillips engaged in disgraceful, dishonourable or unprofessional conduct and failed to maintain the standard of practice of the profession in relation to his communications, including communications on social media and other digital platforms, regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and related issues," the CPSO's website said.
