6/2/12 5 5 5 5 Dr. Izawa is a God send. He is courteous, knowledgeable, and best of all, skilled. I'm recovering from a radical prostatectomy and am doing very well. He did such a good job that I'm recovering much faster than expected. Not only that: Any time I had a question or concern, I called the hospital and the staff was more than willing to help. Furthermore, Dr. Izawa was on rounds when I called and he took the call himself. Very reassuring. I highly recommend him to anyone who does his/her homework and knows that surgery is the best option. I am awaiting the pathology report, but am confident that no matter what the outcome, he was the best choice. Be sure to ask all questions you have before making your decision, but I cannot stress enough the excellence in both the doctors and the staff at Victoria Hospital in London, Ontario.  Respond

9/1/10 5 3 1 4 He is very kind and very knowledgeable. Although I do not feel he diagnosed me correctly. He walked in the room and told me right away I had a chronic problem, and there is not much information about it, and the only way to treat it is with antidepressants. Then he examined me and I asked him about something I thought wasn't right. He said it was scar tissue. I looked up more information about this scar tissue and it turns out it is a disease that could be the cause of all my pain. I don't understand why he couldn't have told me more about this condition instead of taking the last few minutes talking about how I should experiment with the type of underwear I use.  Respond

3/6/09 1 1 1 1 I had the worst experience in my life with that doctor. He completely misdiagnosed me and put me through a major surgery for nothing. I would not recommend him to anybody as he's too self-confident and doesn not inform patients about alternative treatments. My conclusion is that he does not care about patients as much as he cares about his research and financial benefits of performing unnecessary surgeries.  See Responses

5/26/08 4 4 5 5 I wish all doctors were this incredible. He was absolutely wonderful, kind, compassionate and a truly talented surgeon. Even the hospital staff I spoke with said they would chose him if it were them. That really tells the story when he has the respect of his patients, their families and the hospital staff.  Respond
