if i was able to get my records, if doctors like latimer werent so protected, i would be able to sue paul latimer for malpractice and attempted murder... canadian laws make it so you cannot hold doctors accountable whatsoever. paul kept increasing my dose of dexidrine and rhesparidone and lyrica and id see him multiple times a week for a refill (especially of the dexis) when he had made me noticeably addicted. my father, who is a doctor, witnessed this behavior first hand, so by all means, sue me for defamation, if thats the card youd like to play next, coward. he was intentionally feeding that addiction because he makes money off of prescriptions. not my fault i was unaware of such an evil person posing as a good dude in health care, while i was suffering from broken spine and inability to sleep (yah.. he prescribes dex for that). it opened the door for me to then seek out other drugs that were similar to what he prescribed (such as meth, due to it being pretty much the same thing).. thankfully i am years clean and recovered from the addiction, with absolutely no help from health care. i have doctor ptsd as a result of people like latimer. i used to be a popular guy before latimer caused me to lose my mind in a way that would eat at itself, so he could get a profit... he deserves to be in jail, or worse.

Horrible from the get go- I truly think he should give up his practice and go see a psychiatrist-- he certainly needs one--Have talked to many people -including other doctors -he is totally narcissistic -and have been warned by other doctors to stay away from him - why he still allowed to practice--alludes me-- has done so much damage to people-- children and adults-- Save yourself... do not waste your time and money on this quake ..He is bad news--

Worst Psychiatrist!!!
Latimer was the downfall of my marriage break up!
While I was battling Anorexia Nurvosa, he told my husband to leave me, saying that I'll never be normal!
And for 13 years, my now ex husband, would always throw Dr Latimer's words in my face!
What kind of SICK Dr tells his patients spouse, (who clearly needed the support of her partner and needed him to understand what an Eating Disorder is), that it's best to get out of the relationship now?!?
I will NEVER forgive this Quack of a Dr, NEVER!!!
And bcuz of him, I refused to get any further help for my Eating Disorder for over 30 years, almost Dying in the meantime!
Sometimes I'd wish he had a daughter going thru the same Eating Disorder Battle and that her Dr would tell her spouse to leave her, just so Latimer would know how it feels!
I truly think Latimer is the one with the Mental Health Issues and never really went to the School of Psychiatry!! He's got more Mental Issues than any of his patients... He's just a pure GOOF!
So anyone with an Eating Disorder, please be very cautious about being referred to this Goof and Quack of a Dr. But most of all, be very cautious bcuz it's obvious that Latimer is a Woman HATER!!!

He was rude and not knowledgeable at all. He has a real lack of intelligence.

Please find another "doctor". This poor excuse for a man was fired from Kelowna General Hospital as head of both the Eating Disorder Program and the McNair (psychiatric) Unit because Kelowna's family physicians had had enough of him damaging their patients. Personally, he set me back years in my recovery and added yet another trauma to my life. My last admission to the McNair Unit was in 1997, after I had found another psychiatrist. Many staff came to me and apologized for the way Latimer had forced them to treat me. It was my last admission, as I have found a competent & caring doctor, and no longer cycle in & out of hospital. I was under the impression that Latimer was only doing research now and I am saddened to hear that he is once again seeing patients.

Dr. Latimer couldn't diagnose a bad cold. How is this man still in business with all the negative comments below? Please Kelowna, wake up and move to a real professional who treats patients and their families with the understanding and compassion they deserve. This man treated me and my family with such arrogance, dismissiveness and disrespect that it caused continued pain and suffering. Lost time, energy and money for a family in desperate need. Take the shingle off your door you arrogant, disgraceful being .

Thanks for nothing

I have heard several complaints of his arrogance, but I did not find him to be so at all. He answered all of my questions in a very direct manner and has helped me to greatly improve my life. Polite and thoughtful even when dropped in for an emergency conversation after starting my medication, as I had an unexpected reaction.
