Canary Mission Launches NEW Medical List

VITAL NEW RESOURCE IDENTIFYING POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS DOCTORS, NURSES, MED STUDENTS AND OTHER MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS.

Anti-Semitism has continued to rise. Anti-hate watchdog Canary Mission recognizes that for the sake of patient safety, there is an urgent need for greater scrutiny of medical professionals.

For this reason, Canary Mission has launched a NEW Medical List - a resource dedicated to helping the public become aware of anti-Semitic and bigoted doctors, nurses, med students and other medical professionals.

The list was launched on September 15th, 2020, with 45 medical professionals and students.

ANTI-SEMITIC DOCTOR: WALID KHASS
Most of you will remember Canary Mission's exposure of Cleveland Clinic resident, Lara Kollab, who posted numerous anti-Semitic tweets, including a threat to give Jews “the wrong meds.” Just last month, Kollab’s medical license was permanently revoked by the Ohio State Medical Board. 

Kollab is one of many medical professionals that Canary Mission looked into. Another very concerning example is Walid Khass.

In March 2017, Canary Mission published the profile of then-medical student, Khass. His social media was replete with threatening anti-Semitic posts, including "Kill the Jews" and "Go beat up a Zionist." However, Khass did not face any consequences for his statements — that is, until they went viral two years later.

By that point, Khass had secured a Pediatric Residency at the New York-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital. When the hospital learned about Khass’s bigoted views, they immediately attempted to sever their relationship with him by seeking a waiver from the National Residency Matching Program (NRMP). 

Following the NRMP’s outrageous refusal to grant the waiver, the hospital chose to break its contract with Khass. Khass successfully sued the hospital and was reinstated. However, the hospital is currently appealing that decision, citing their very real concern for patient safety.
