Original Toronto Star caption: Health guarantee: Dr. Michael Gordon, author of a medical guide for seniors, chats with former patient Olga Tamas, 86, at Baycrest Hospital. Gordon advises seniors that the best way to make use of the health system is by learning about their problems and understanding how their body works. All this is part of the patient's responsibility towards his own health, Gordon says.
