Toronto Surgeon Under Fire for Clinic Camera

A Toronto plastic surgeon is facing serious scrutiny after a hidden camera revealed a secret security camera in his consultation room — a move deemed invasive and potentially illegal by Ontario’s privacy commissioner. While the clinic claims the camera was for safety, the commissioner says it breaches privacy laws and undermines trust, especially since patients weren’t informed or given a choice. Unlike clinics that use cameras for teaching with consent, this setup lacked transparency and opt-out options. The surgeon, known online as Dr. 6ix, also posts surgical videos — raising concerns about consent even if he claims all content is approved. Both the College of Physicians and the privacy commissioner are investigating, with potential penalties including camera removal and footage deletion if violations are confirmed.
