We were fortunate to sign with dr. Izen when we first moved to Vancouver, 6 months pregnant and couldn't find a family GP. Over the years she has been incredibly helpful and always available with advice, treatment and referrals for every family member, including children and senior parent. Her office is prompt at making appointments and administration. Highly recommend Dr. Izen and her team! read more

It's very difficult to find a Family GP in Vancouver. To find one of Dr Izen's expertise is even more difficult . We feel very fortunate to have her taking care of our young family! read more

Dr Izen has been my GP for over 10 years. I have consistently found her to be friendly, down-to-earth, and someone that I feel comfortable bringing forward any issues with. I appreciate that she's open to exploring health care options prior to resorting to prescription drugs. I have always felt that she has my best interests at heart. My husband and I feel very fortunate that she is our family doctor as we've both received excellent care when required. read more

I was suffering from severe depression.. She had absolutely no idea of how to help me. I did not want to see a psychiatrist but would gladly have seen a psychiatric nurse or counsellor. Dr Izen knows my wife from her work at BC women's (but not very well) and after my last consultation with Dr Izen she approached my wife privately and asked "how do you manage to live with that". That is an ill 51 year old father and husband, A human being. A former research chemist with BP with a research degree and a bucket load of publication and, lately, a world class teacher. A good father and a husband that loves his wife. Not a "that". The kind doctor then went on to tell my wife about another of her patients. A 72 year old woman who's husband also suffers from depression and who wishes she had left her husband 30 years ago. What a delight you are doctor Izen. Perhaps it is because I am a man and don't have the parts that delivers cash into the doctor's bank account? We have returned to Scotland so I can get the medical help I need and temporarily separated (living with a depressed person is stressful) so my wife can de stress. I have no words to describe this doctor. If you are male run a mile. read more
