London Health Sciences Centre's President and CEO Dr. Paul Woods travelled to Michigan December 19 to visit family and returned Dec. 25, the hospital said in a statement. I understand that my travel to see family could undoubtedly cause frustration given my repeated asks for adherence to public health measures. In November, one month before travelling for the holidays, Woods wrote an all-staff memo critical of employees who break public health guidelines. Dr. Woods was previously based in Livonia, Michigan before signing a 5-year contract with LHSC that began in 2018. LHSC said in the statement that Woods followed public health guidelines when he returned from his trips, driving across the border, and quarantining upon his return.
