Dr. Mark Treissman

Dr. Treissman was the OBGYN on call who performed my emergency c-section at RIH when induction of labour failed. He took the time to answer all of my questions during the consultations and did not rush or pressure me on any decisions I had to make. Although I was nervous for the procedure (especially as I had planned to have a natural birth), he was calm, professional and did his best to put me at ease. The staff that worked alongside him in the OR were equally as wonderful. I am so thankful for his work in helping bring my baby earth side safely and would recommend him to any expecting mother looking for an OBGYN.

If you have PCOS you need to see Dr. Treissman. I have seen numerous 'specialists' whos only treatment was to tell me to lose weight (which is a symptom not the root cause). Dr. Treissman's approach instead has been to actually treat the root cause instead - the hormone irregulation. I've had PCOS my entire life and he was the first Dr who offered me the option to TREAT the hormone problem. Extremely knowledgeable on the syndrome and will work with all options available to treat you.

I have had Mark as my specialist for the better part of 25 years - I have had 3 different issues - all with excellent results - he is kind, he listens, he never rushes, he gives first class advice - in fact after moving to Vernon - I was disappointed with the decision to let a 5 cm cyst just remain on my ovary while there are changes to it - and another ovary with many clusters of cysts. I am 63 I don't need my ovaries anymore - so I asked to be referred back to Mark in Kamloops. I have lost friends to ovarian cancer and I know this doctor will have it removed. He is a treasure and Kamloops is so fortunate to have his expertise.
