The 'Columbia Medical Building' was the venue for a medical specialist appointment recently -- a…read morerather well-known venue from previous 'visits' over the years. Located within the Sapperton area of New Westminster, Columbia Medical is a 4-storey medical office building housing a variety of medical professional services. The building is very centrally- and conveniently-located to other such services within Sapperton. These include: the Royal Columbia Hospital (the emergency entrance to the hospital is located directly across the street), on Keary Street, the nearby Keary Centre and Royal City Medical, plus a LifeLabs med lab, and additional drug prescription facilities at a Shoppers Drug Mart and Save-on Foods Supermarket, each just a short walk away. If the family doctor refers us to a specialist at Columbia Medical, we know it is a great location, easy to get to, and handy to so many nearby additional services if/when required.

After finally a doctor accepted me in this clinic, I was happy!…read moreHowever, my consultations were by phone, and once I needed a doctor note, Michele the staff at reception, took my $60 payment for the DR note but insisted that I come personally to the clinic to pick it up. I was in disbelief ! She read the note and she knew very well that I am ill but refused to email me the note (??) Upon my insistence and explaining again and again that I am ill and cannot go anywhere, she finally said: "I will email the note ONLY this time as we do not offer this service" They charge $170 to fill few line on a form. They charge $80 for a very little tiny page. They charge $85 to $100 for missing appointments. I like my doctor he is a good man, but this clinic is very expensive more than any other that I have ever known. Yet bad service! It is a money making company NOT a clinic and no empathy whatsoever :(

A young girl of 24 was given a doctor error hysterectomy which ruined her health and life. Dr. WIntemute hid behind bureaucracy. Did Dr. Waterman tell this young lady the truth of what happened that day in the operating room? NO! You need to contact me Dr. Waterman, I need to know exactly what went on in the O.R. that day. I know Wintemute was loaded and shouldn't have been operating on anyone. If you have any compassion, heart, spiritual beliefs, etc, whatsoever, you will contact me and tell me everything. If you have NO heart, NO compassion, NO belief in God and you don't care about people whatsoever, then I guess I won't hear from you.
