An eastern Ontario doctor facing a first-degree murder charge had his case adjourned for two weeks after a short court appearance Tuesday.
Dr. Brian Nadler is accused of killing Albert Poidinger, 89, who lived in Pointe-Claire, Que., at the Hawkesbury and District General Hospital.
Ontario Provincial Police say they were called to the hospital on March 25, after which Poidinger was declared dead and Nadler was arrested.
