Abstract
- This is an article that profiles Garth Taylor, an eye doctor in Canada.Taylor employs such humour, mixed with compassion and expertise, in his practice in Cornwall, Ont., where he lives and is chief of ophthalmology at the city's general hospital. Ordinarily, respect as a university professor and standing as a hospital department head are accomplishment enough, but Taylor has distinguished himself as well with Orbis International, an aid agency dedicated to saving sight among the poor. Once, in mid-'80s South Africa, a white man balked at having Taylor operate on his son because of Taylor's skin colour. Taylor, who is married with two grown children, was born in the Year of the Monkey.
