Big Jim Leeson parks his Cessna Skyplane, zips up his jacket and goes to pay a house call.

With his Cessna he can hop down to Toronto in an hour for a lecture. Still, he admits, a rural practice might not be every doctor's cup of tea, I'm a farm boy myself...I'm used to it, he says.

Eye operation: Eye surgeon Dr. Lionel Chisholm of Toronto Western Hospital says a research clinic here would provide a centre where he and other doctors could share information on eye treatment techniques with researchers.
