Excellent Doctor. Has been mine since he took over the practice - 25 years ago (or more). I feel…read morevery lucky to have had him as my primary care physician. Broke my spine a few years ago during the pandemic and was given quality of care and he referred me to the top spinal surgeons and neurosurgeons. Again I feel very fortunate to have him as my primary care physician. Staff and practice is run professionally. He is very detail oriented and client care is always his first priority.

I moved to New Westminster and still will only see him in Vancouver. Sometimes its hard getting through on phone but definately worth the wait. Staff are very professional and stoic which is usually misinterpreted as rude or abrupt. Don't take it personal.

My partner and I have been to Local Health Integrative Clinic several times to see their naturopath…read morepractitioners. They have a range of services (acupuncture, chiro, RMT's, RCC's, dietitian and osteopath) along with yoga and movement classes. Interesting that they've recently started a student naturopathic medicine community clinic ($10.00 to $50.00 sliding scale). Seen Dr. Wendy Romano for prolotherapy and trigger point injection therapy ($240.00 for 60 min, $150.00-$160.00 for 30 min) and cold laser therapy ($175.00 for 45 min, $115.00-$165.00 for follow-up). Depending on the area, you may have to pay additional fees. Treatments have been okay but are very subtle. My partner has seen Dr. Robyn Land for several gua sha facials ($130.00 for 45 min). During her last visit, the practitioner was late and only treated her for 30 minutes.

I was very disappointed in this clinic. I have gone there for years and have seen various…read morepractitioners. Today, I was very ill and sent an email at 0200 to advise I would not be able to make it. I pleaded my case and was told there was a charge and there was no flexibility around this. I found them to be inflexible and punitive. Should I have attended the appointment sick and pass it on to the practitioner? I felt they really didn't care and just wanted my money. I will never return to this clinic and will advise all my friends and family of this very unfortunate situation. I also had to cancel my dentist appointment and they did this without issue.

Over the summer I experienced a cardiac event.

Thanks to their skills and abilities, they were able to reive me and bring me back from what was sure to be the end of my life. Amazing hospital and stellar medical teams. If one has a serious medical issue, I strongly recommend VGH. They have developed effective systems and skilled teams. Thanks to all who cared for me.

Great female family doctor. She's professional, caring and non-judgmental. Nothing like the older…read moremale doctors at a walk-in clinic I used to see who asked all kinds of irrelevant questions and not only that(!), passed rude comments about responsible decisions for birth control. Thank God for Dr. Anand. I might have lost it and strangled them and their archaic, sexist and overbearing views with their stethoscope. Call ahead to make appointments and arrive a few minutes early. Walk ins are also welcome but if you're on a schedule, call to make an appointment.

All of the staff is friendly and I've never had a concern with going to this clinic. Dr. Look has helped me with a myriad of medical problems, I definitely keep him busy. He always has a smile and often some very good advise. I know he's helped multiple interns from medical school get valuable experience and not every doctor will do that.

Dr Murphy is absolutely the best GP you can ever have. Medicine is perfectly suited to her as a…read moreprofession; smart, intuitive, caring, approachable, understanding, broad-minded, she has it all. A great listener, she isn't condescending; on the contrary, she wants to know what you think and how you feel about what she recommends. She has been my and spouse´s doctor for about 15 years and I have always felt fortunate to have her as my primary health care provider. We feel she is like a very respected member of our family. We both revere her as a doctor and person. She is predictably vivacious and it radiates. It's just cool being with her. Unfortunately Dr Murphy is only available part time. I understand; she deserves more time for her family and herself after many years of generously caring for her patients. I hope I don't come off as a deranged zealot. I just want you to know that in this often rush-rush, me-me, angry, stressful world, their are people like Dr. Carol Murphy who deserve to be acknowledged.

Since then I may have not seen him often as he is busy or I dont make appointments (my health incidences are very unscheduled). All my visits have been great. I write this review cause I was going through a rough time with my health and met Dr. Macdonald and he took great interest in helping, reassuring and personally following up with me. He said things like "I can help you" and "We will have a plan in plan for you" and the next day he called and said please come in "We have a plan in plan for you" I am 40 years and I have seen over 40 doctors but only 3 doctors in my lifetime who have taken such great interest in the patient. Dr. Macdonald is one of them.
