In my opinion I will never find a Dr. that truly made me feel like he had an investment in my over all health and wellbeing.

I have NO issues driving the 3+ hours each way for an appointment. I won't even try to find a new doctor in Edmonton because no one will live up to the standard of care this man provides. He is very patient focused and a pretty big deal in the Alberta Health Care system. I once mentioned that and he said "I'm not the biggest cheese, but I'm the stinkiest cheese."

I visited Dr. Hui many years ago and after running a scope up each nostril, she said that I had a…read moreslightly deviated septum and that it would not benefit from a procedure to straighten it out. She was very nice and professional and appeared to be extremely knowledgeable. She listened carefully to what I had to say and as a specialist ENT doctor I felt very confident in what she did to diagnose my condition! I must say however that I've been considering another visit about another problem, but I'm taken aback about so few reviews for a highly trained ENT specialist who impressed me on my first experience with her and that the reviews from her repeat patients seem to indicate that she has fallen into the attitude that many, but Not All specialists fall into, where she hears what she wants to hear and is dismissive of ancillary information that could confirm her initial diagnosis or warrant further examination that is needed to come to a definitive diagnosis and could possibly change her conclusion of what she was dealing with. It wouldn't surprise me unfortunately, because training to be a specialist demands a quick and certain diagnosis without trivializing your knowledge and experience with details that most of the time just confirm your initial diagnosis and are just a waste of your precious time. When you go to the ER, it's the DETAILS given to you if you really listen to the patient that help you to decide whether abuse, sexual abuse or other important information apply to your patients and ONLY BY LISTENING and "READING BETWEEN THE LINES" so to speak, that can determine whether involving the Police, Social Workers, Sexual Abuse Specialists, Elder Abuse Specialists, etc is A PRUDENT COURSE OF ACTION TO KEEP FROM RETURNING YOUR PATIENT TO THE SITUATION THAT COULD GET THEM MORE SERIOUSLY INJURED or EVEN KILLED!!! Sure if they come to the ER in LIFE THREATENING CONDITION, it's SECONDS THAT MATTER, but Your Patient Isn't PROPERLY DIAGNOSED and TREATED UNTIL EVERY I IS DOTTED and EVERY T IS CROSSED and You Are Taught To TRUST YOUR "GUT INSTINCT" UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE and TO REALLY DIG and GET THE ENTIRE PICTURE, because THINGS ARE NOT ALWAYS AS THEY FIRST APPEAR!!! I'm NOT CRITICIZING ALL SPECIALISTS, and I Really Hope That Dr. Hui Actually Reads This Review To The Very End, because I'm NOT SUGGESTING That She Waste Her Time ON TRIVIALITIES, but Very Few PATIENTS Are Highly Trained Specialists, Who Can Rattle Off All Of The Definitive and Necessary Signs and Symptoms and Details That Are REQUIRED FOR YOU TO MAKE A CONCLUSIVE DIAGNOSIS and Being REFERRED TO A SPECIALIST FOR THEIR ISSUE CAN BE VERY SCAREY and INTIMIDATING, because IT IS IS INDICATIVE THAT THEIR DOCTOR CONSIDERS THEIR CONDITION and/or ISSUE FAIRLY SERIOUS, No Matter What Their Doctor Told Them To Prepare Them For Seeing A Specialist, Like The Woman Who Found Out From Another ENT That She Had A SHAWANNOMA sp? and Needed IMMEDIATE SURGERY!!! I believe that she said that she was ELDERLY and That Is ALL THE MORE REASON TO LISTEN CAREFULLY TO EVERYTHING THAT SHE HAS TO SAY and TO BE PREPARED TO ASK HER QUESTIONS TO FILL IN ALL OF THE DETAILS!!! Please Remember That YOU ARE A VERY TRAINED and EXPERIENCED SPECIALIST * FIRST * and SEEING and BILLING FOR AS MANY PATIENTS AS YOU POSSIBLY CAN TO FATTEN YOUR BANK ACCOUNT * LASTLY *!!! You Can Have A THRIVING and EXTREMELY LUCRATIVE PRACTICE Very Well In Every Large City In America , Where Someone Such As Yourself Can Virtually Bill Your Patients By The Word That They Say To You and You HOPE and PRAY That They Are EXTREMELY DETAILED IN DESCRIBING THEIR PROBLEMS!!! I For One Would Hate To Lose You, because I had A Wonderful Experience With You, but PLEASE DON'T ALLOW YOUR BANK ACCOUNT To Interfere With Your Exceptional Knowledge and Experience!!! I Gave You 5 Stars On My First Experience With You!!! I'm Reservedly Giving You 3 Stars On The Visit That I'm Asking My GP To Refer Me To You For A Totally Different Problem, based On Your Review. I SINCERELY HOPE and PRAY That I Can WRITE A STELLER REVIEW and ACTUALLY CHANGE THAT TO 5 STARS AFTER MY CONSULTATION WITH YOU. MY BEST WISHES ALWAYS !!!

This past Saturday I was enjoying said beverage when I banged my false front tooth on the bottle and knocked it out (classy, I know). This is not the first time this has happened. For those of you who know me, this particular tooth was bonded with a fake at the budding age of 6 when a friends' little brother threw a step ladder at me, and, in 1999; in a coffee cup incident; it was knocked loose and rebonded again. I have been going to Harker Chan and Associates for about three years and I called Dr. Harker about correcting my sudden hillbilliness Sunday morning. He graciously answered even though I called a personal number and offered to come in early the next day to get me fixed. I was in and out of his office in a half hour. To say that this man is anything short of a perfectionist would be an understatement. He is quick, professional and knows his work. His portfolio of veneered teeth is impressive; I have seen few veneers that look so natural. Now I can't review the entire practice without also talking about Dr. Chan (Dr. Chan is my regular doctor there, who rocks ps, but Dr. Harker has worked on my false tooth before and is the cosmetic surgeon, hence my call to him). Dr. Chan is prompt, lively and professional. When I was slated to have my wisdom teeth removed; without sedation, Dr. Chan had me back at work in less than a day. This guy knows his dental surgery. These men have ground, filled, bonded, poked and prodded my teeth for three years and I'm always relaxed in their chair. Their staff is friendly, smart and all have a very gentile touch. I recommend either doctor to anyone looking for a new dentist. T.
