Worst oncologist ever!! Didn’t remember what treatment protocol he put my daughter on. More interested in boasting about himself then saving patients. Stay clear if you want to live.

Dr. Sawyer is competent, compassionate, credible, cutting edge. He is not condescending, but relatable. It is a privilege to have him as my doc. The negative reviews likely are emotional one offs, not a fair assessment of this man with a big heart and brain.

Dr Sawyer is a wonderful doctor. He was always kind and compassionate to my mother. Our family always felt better after meeting with Dr Sawyer. His knowledge and expertise is incredible. My family and I will forever be grateful for the extra precious time we had with my mother. Dr. Sawyer even came to see my mom the night before she passed away at another hospital. He is above and beyond. We dealt with him for 5 years.. So grateful for that time we had with our mom. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

This doctor was assigned to my friend Debra diagnosed with Cholangiocarcinoma. She waited 3 months for a consult. He spoke to her doctor, denied her treatment and refused to speak to her. No appointment, no consult, no conversation just go away and die. If this is his attitude towards cancer patients, perhaps he should look into another way to make a living.

Amazing Oncologist and we highly recommend him. Not only has his experience and knowledge kept my husband, who has pancreatic cancer, going for what is now starting year 3 of treatments, his wonderful sense of humor and upbeat attitude is also a huge factor in the therapeutic process. Edmonton is extremely lucky to have access to him and his wonderful, professional and caring team.

Truly one of the most incompetent MD’s. If you’re assigned this oncologist run. Run far and fast

I've had this Dr for over 2 years now, through my phase 1 clinical trial for mesothelioma. He's very , very informative and compassionate and always takes time (& beyond) to answer my endless list of questions. Brilliant doctor.

Dr Sawyer was never on time. At my mothers last appointment, he encouraged surgery for her cancer and spent most of the time talking about how wonderful he is. He neglected to show my mom her most recent CT, so she was not aware that her cancer had leaped from 4 priorty nodules, to 12 in less than a month. She only learned that from her surgeon. This oncologist focused on the surgery, not the cancer.

He is very clever, cares deeply about all his patients, Hit is a crusade for him against cancer and he has a great staff as well. He treated me like a thinking human being kept nothing from me. He has a devoted staff think they world of time. He was so busy he was hard too come on this schedule sometimes but it didn't matter he always turned up. He was always ready to talk and explain what was going on honestly but with care.
