What can I do if I disagree with my doctor?

I have been diagnosed with stage 1 meningioma. 4 years ago my neurosurgeon said he would remove it if I wanted. Since covid and all the backlog and the health care cuts now I have chosen that I want it removed. My family doctor put a referral into him with this request and now he is refusing saying it isn't necessary. What are my rights after he offered me previously to remove it. I don't want it in my head any more. Am I eligible for Medicare in another province like Quebec if I can't find another neurosurgeon in Ontario to perform the operation? And how would I go about this? I am on ODSP with OHIP coverage only. Please help. I cannot find any information and my rights.
Thank you. |
