Brantford Dentist Clinic Exposure Alert | Montreal News
Description
Former patients of Dr. George Chan’s Brantford dental clinic are being urgently urged to get tested for hepatitis B, C, and HIV after a major sterilization scandal exposed improper cleaning of reusable instruments. The clinic shut down in November following a complaint from a former receptionist, leading to an investigation that found 15 critical failures in infection control. Though the risk is deemed low, public health officials are taking a precautionary approach to protect patients’ health and gather vital data. If you were treated between Nov. 21–25, 2021, contact your healthcare provider or a walk-in clinic with a requisition from Grand Erie Public Health.
