Health Care 911: The Plight of Immigrant Doctors is a point of view documentary told through the eyes of Kurdish immigrant and filmmaker Jiyar Gol as he follows the lives of a group of immigrant doctors struggling to find work in Canada's health care system. Viewers will meet newly arrived immigrants who are trying to enter the system, as well as others who have been in Canada for several years and have yet to obtain their medical board certification. We witness the dual lives of these trained health care professionals...once esteemed workers in their homelands who now find themselves working blue collar jobs or as menial laborers. Thought-provoking, compassionate, and sometimes unbelievable, Health Care 911 exposes the catastrophic waiting game of the doctor shortage and shows that the system might be the "sickest" of them all.
