10/17/12 3 1 1 1 I have only seen this doctor for only one time but my kneeligament iscompletely torn but this doctyor didn't care too much about surgewry rather he wanted me totake medication toeager the pain and got me abraces to wear. Physician reffered me to cast ceramic operation but rather, he didn't schedule a surgery but another follow-up appointment. He thinks that every single patient is joking. I'm still getting some pain with fore quadriceps and hind quadricep, knee pain and some twitches. this really isn't helpful at all!!!!  Respond

5/4/11 1 3 4 3 Am really upset, my mother in law who did not even know she had a consultation appointment with Dr. Telfer which SHE WAS NOT INFORMED by her GP's office and now Dr. Telfer's office has literally BANNED her from seeing Dr. Telfer. I work for an Orthopaedic Surgeon myself and we do have strict office policies about no show patients but this is RIDICULOUS!! Dr. Telfer had done a rotator cuff repair on her right shoulder and she was happy with the results. I am just BAFFLED and will be writing a letter to the B.C. College of Physician and Surgeons!  Respond

8/24/07 4 4 5 5 Dr. Telfer operated on my kneecap several years ago after I had fractured it in a fall. The surgery went well and I recovered with full use of my knee. Several years later he repaired torn tendons on the same knee with good results. He left little scar tissue with both surgeries. I found him to be caring, knowledgeable, and a skilled surgeon.  Respond
