Dr. Roger Purnell - HERITAGE ORTHOPAEDIC GROUP

Dr. Roger Purnell is a top orthopedic surgeon who is widely recognized across the province by other doctors and health care professionals. I had surgeons and students at Vancouver General Hospital studying the work he did on me, and I'm very fortunate to be able to walk again due to his efforts. I had a shattered lower left leg (in 3 places) with a compound fracture, due to a bad motorcycle accident. It was a very complex injury. He did an amazing job of restoring the broken bones to their proper place and repairing the damage. I am expected to make a full recovery as a result, and I am very grateful to this prestigious doctor for his fantastic work. Every doctor and surgeon I met with spoke very highly of him and had great praise for his work and his abilities. They all said that I was very lucky to have him, and I have nothing but gratitude for the amazing job he did for me. He trains and educates other surgeons and students, and I thank him from the bottom of my heart for saving my leg. He is truly an expert in his field.

I have had 3 procedures with Dr Purnell. A hand surgery, bone spurs removed from left heel and a total hip replacement over the last 3 years. Very efficient surgeon who’s highly skilled hands made each surgery hugely successful, infection free. And healed up beautifully. He literally took my last 2 years of pain completely away so that I can actually live a normal life. This was a game changer for me. For that I am so grateful to have had you as my surgeon and I am deeply indebted to you cause you gave me back life with happiness. Thank you so much.
