DR. BARNA TUGWELL REVIEWS

Dr Barna De (Tugwell) is the best doctor I have ever had. She treated me for diabetes and then pancreatitis. Was very knowledgeable even called me at home to see how I was doing. Really efficient and on the ball with referrals when necessary. Excellent bedside manner. Wonderful doctor.

Dr Barna has to be the most wonderful doctor who has ever treated me. She is kind, respectful, knowledgeable and so caring.

I have been a patient of Dr. Day (Tugwell) for a few years. She is great and really cares. Very knowledgeable about diabetes. Helps with problem-solving - SA

Great doctor. I feel like she is more like a friend checking in on me than a medical doctor. - J. Reply

DR. THOMAS RANSOM REVIEWS

My first appt with Dr. Ransom was amazing. He really took his time to explain everything to me in detail and had a super caring demeanour. I felt validated with my concerns other doctors didn’t take seriously and left feeling super optimistic. He was on time, not rushed at all, and the entire staff were all very pleasant. My next follow up is by telephone but I’m very happy to have met this doctor.

I have always found Dr. Ransom knowledgeable, welcoming, friendly and sympathetic. He will acknowledge the other health and personal issues a patient may have. He has even taken me in early for appointments. I have had him for a number of years and have never had a bad encounter with him.

One of the most compassionate doctors I have EVER met! I have never met him in person due to the pandemic, however, his concern and kindness are felt over the phone in each appointment. So grateful to have been referred to him.

DR. SHIRL GEE REVIEWS

Professional. Years of spina bifida & hydrocephalus doctors, now I'm transitioning since 2010, physically since 2012 has left me appreciating that Dr. Gee is few with her words which just means we get to skip the wait times in the waiting rooms before the appointment. Happy with results. People need to respect people & doctors like Dr. Shirl Gee & stop complaining about human error like Dr. Gee forgetting the name of a patient, as detailed in another comment. Life or death circumstances are what these kinds of doctors are for, not people who wanna screw around & give Dr. Gee a bad name.

The staff is about the same as all other staff for all doctors. overworked and trying to help people with changes in their appointment times and sending out forms people lost for blood work between appointments. The doctors are overworked because the provincial government has failed to hire enough doctors.

It was my first visit to endo in canada she was awesome in explaining me the things and guiding me for everything.
