Dr. Kante Easley practices medicine in Hazelton, a small northern B.C. community where he serves a mostly Indigenous population.

A B.C. doctor serving a northern Indigenous community is claiming UBC’s medical school’s alleged incompetence has restricted his ability to practice medicine.

In a May 6 B.C. Supreme Court notice of civil claim, Easley said that before applying to a UBC Department of Family Medicine course for enhanced obstetrical surgical skills, he was competent to perform complex childbirths. The claim said participants would be given ongoing informal as well as formal feedback on their performance.

“During his one, three and five month reviews, Dr. Easley was not informed of material incompetencies threatening his success in the program. Dr. Easley was informed of the areas in which he was excelling, and was provided with constructive feedback. At no point during the one, three, and five month evaluations were concerns raised about Dr. Easley’s professionalism,” the claim said.
