This doctor sent me home from the ER after refusing to give me a CT scan even though the Oliver Hospital requested it. He decided, without any conversation with me, that I had a twisted bowel that had miraculously fixed itself on the ambulance ride into Penticton. WRONG - when I finally did get my CT scan 2 weeks later, I had peritoneal cancer!!!!He does not listen and makes up his mind before he has all the facts. I had surgery for this condition a week after the scan and the epidural did not work, so I was in severe pain and received morphine all the day after. McIvor was the weekend surgeon on duty, and again without lISTENING to me, he started lecturing me about not eating.If he had LISTENED to what myself and the nurse were telling him, he might have understood that I was nauseated all day due to the morphine and not able to eat. RUN, don't walk away, from this doctor.
