Sunnybrook & Women’s College hospital is remaining silent after word that a local, but unnamed dentist who was treated at the facility, launched a $200-million class action lawsuit against the hospital. The doctor, whose name is not known because he fears his dental practice would be affected over the scare of the spread of HIV, said he was among more than 800 men who received letters after hospital officials learned there was a sterilization problem with an instrument used for taking a prostate biopsy.
