Marine Medical
Had a heart attack 3 years ago. Have been cleared to work by Cardiologist, personal physician and passed a TC Medical in July 2013. 3 months ago my medical was lifted and replaced with limitations. basically I'm about to lose my job because a nurse in Ottawa seems to think he knows more than 3 Doctors. Is there anyway to appeal this and to whom. Any help with addresses (Email or postal) or phone numbers would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Marine Medical
I know its a big problem in the states, and they have a clear appeal process, not sure about Canada. Have you tried contacting Marine Safety in Ottawa for instructions on this. Would be very frustrating.

Re: Marine Medical
The procedure of appealing your medical status is outlined in Division 8 of the Crewing Regulations of the Canada Shipping Act
Division 8 outlines your responsibilities in the appeal process along with your employer or anyone you select to represent you in the appeal process such as a union representative or a lawyer.
Good Luck
