Just to be clear: do you want to work in management in the healthcare sector?

Rotman has a a lot of good resources for MBAs in this field: not only does the school offer a specialized MBA in the sector, it also hosts the Centre for Health Sector Strategy, which produces a lot of research in the field.

Schulich has an MBA in Health Industry Management, which also might be interesting for you.

And I do believe that Ivey and Queen's also have specialized MBA options...

But Duncan's right - you should first determine your career goals and then figure out whether you actually need something specialized or not.
