With a little searching through the multitude of MacKays in the database did find a likely match. "Angus MacKay" http://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/discove...dNumber=164140 Unfortunately, his records have not yet been digitized.

However, having a first name made it easy to find this which has a similar photo of the doctor.
