DR. ALAN SO - VANCOUVER PROSTATE CENTRE REVIEWS

Alan, has been an incredible Dr for me for many years, when I get my annual scope. He is always smiling, and explains what we see on the monitor. I realize he is very busy, so I keep my questions specific, which he patiently answers, as if he had all day. He is such an asset to me and the world of medicine. William G.

Wonderful doctor. Exceptional bedside care. He is a wonderful surgeon, and my scar is so small from my kidney surgery that you can't tell I had surgery.

Dr So is way more than a fabulous and skilled doctor he is a very kind and caring person!!! Thank you so much!! Sharon Kelly

DR. RYAN PATERSON - STONE CENTRE REVIEWS

As a kidney stone carrier, I have been seeing Dr. Paterson on and off for years. He is very thorough and caring. He follows up regularly to determine if kidneys stones are prevalent and if treatment is required. After a procedure he always follows up and answers questions and concerns. His staff have been with him for years and are always kind and competent. I feel truly blessed to have a specialist like Dr. Paterson taking care of me.

Dr. Paterson performed Prostrate Laser Surgury for me recently. He was kind, listened to my concerns and provided a life changing procedure that satisfied my expectations. He followed up on my progression though out my overnight hospital stay and post operative time. I would highly recommend his special skills to anyone considering future medical solutions.

Doctor Ryan Paterson, is hands down the best Urologist I have ever encountered. I say this as a person who has required Urological care and as a health care professional, who has worked with many of the Urologists in the Vancouver area over the last 30 yrs. - BA

DR. BEN CHEW - STONE CENTRE REVIEWS

Since I was not familiar with the Canadian health system and the system is different in my home country I was really scared of how they are going to take care of me here. There were moments that I thought they don't care about me but it turned out that I was wrong; they care about the patient but in a different way. My case is complicated as I am Cystinuria and my stone is the worst stone for surgery . Dr chew did lazer lithotripsy and it was the best surgery I've had ever, Dr chew tolerated my bad temper as well. I was just scared and in pain so I was a very bad temper patient.He called me twice, And explain me what’s going on.

Dr. Chew performed two surgeries on me last September to find and treat 4 kidney stones that had traveled into my ureter. The care and professionalism of Dr. Chew and his "Team" was truly amazing. His follow-up call following the last surgery was unexpected and showed how much he cares. Thank you so much!

I was very fortunate to have TURP surgery performed by Dr. Chew. He explained the procedure clearly, and 2 weeks post op followed up with a consult during which he also clearly explained the results. I believe that the operation was very successful, as at 14 days, my recovery appears to be proceeding well. I am now pretty much back to my normal active routine of exercise.
