Emergency Medicine

April 12, 2010 NLMA President Dr. Brendan Lewis launched the NLMA’s second public information session to discuss the challenges in providing Emergency Medicine throughout the province. This session was led by Emergency Room physicians Dr. Scott Wilson, who practises in St. John's, Dr. Shawn Tiller, who practises in Gander and Dr. Tom Costello, who practises in Wabush and Labrador City. An emergency physician provides immediate recognition, evaluation, care, stabilization, and disposition of a generally diversified population of adult and pediatric patients in response to acute illness and injury in the emergency department of a hospital.
