DR. KATHLEEN KATIPUNAN - BARRIE MEDICAL AND COSMETIC DERMATOLOGY REVIEWS
Dr Katipunan and her staff couldn’t have been more pleasant and efficient. I was treated, plus Dr Katipunan gave me a check over for more abnormal spots. Went over and above what she needed to do. Thanks - S
Dr.Katipunan was recommended by my neighbour actually. I had to wait to see her but it’s understandable since there are not a lot of specialist around. She’s knowledgeable and I didn’t feel rushed at all. Will recommend her.
Dr. Katipunan is really good at what she does. Very professional. Highly recommend her.

DR. MEGAN MACGILLIVRAY - FULL CIRCLE DERM REVIEWS
I was referred to Dr. MacGillivray when I was struggling with hormonal acne. She has helped clear my skin in a safe manner and by the deadline of my wedding date! She is also lovely and very personable. You can tell she really cares about her patients. Her office staff are also amazing. Very responsive and friendly. I have felt very well cared for in Dr. MacGillivray’s care.
I approached Dr. MacGillivray for some aging sun damaged skin and wrinkle concerns. She was extremely proficient wielding some state-of-the-art techniques. Her micro-needling treatment and chemical peels made my middle-aged skin look much better, and she was extremely patient with my anxiety with the whole process. Thank you so much! I will return for some follow up treatments and will be braver next time now that I know what is involved.
Dr. MacGillivray is a kind and respectful doctor. She helped me greatly with my skin condition.
