My family were patients of Patti's for over 10 years and I've experienced her be everything people have commented about - the good & the bad. I never knew what mood she'd be in, and sometimes she was kind & supportive, while other times she was impatient & grumpy. Several times she misdiagnosed what I was there to see her about. For example, she had my x-ray report from the ER, and I'd been to a physiotherapist, about my shoulder and she declared it was frozen and I should move it more. NOT what the ER doctor or physio had diagnosed after careful examination. She refused to do anything more for me in spite of what was really wrong causing severe nerve damage. And this wasn't the only time she didn't investigate my problem, just jumped to a conclusion. She even told me to "fix it yourself" when I suffered back pain, which other health professionals have told me is due to scar tissue in my back and not something I can fix myself. Again she didn't bother to investigate though it was recurring and extremely painful. Sometimes she was great and she helped my husband a lot but in the end I couldn't trust her.
Often she criticized or complained about her last patient to me, telling me she "couldn't stand it when people tell her they have a high pain threshold" (for example) and how she'd like to punch them in the face and ask how they'd rate the pain. While I waited in the examining room I often heard heard her outside in the corridor talking about patients as well.
I can assure you I'm not a liar or mentally incapacitated, nor am I a difficult personality who has an axe to grind. I'm also no hypochondriac who tested her patience. I tried to be a loyal, compliant patient for far too long.

I only found this while looking up her contact info to give my life insurance company. I’m shocked that people who intentionally try to tarnish her reputation!!! I have been seeing her since 2012. I have taken both my children to her. My daughter even got her first PAP and sex talk there. Dr Anderson is a lovely person who is caring, knowledgeable, respectful, ever so helpful but most of all completely professional. These negative reviews are either drug addicts or people who were expecting her to fix their life’s. She never even bitched about my smoking which ever other dr has done. She even gave us the gardisil vaccines free of cost. She cares about people and animals. Yes you need to book she’s not going to be avail 24/7/365 to cater to you but the service you receive is well worth it. I really hope this nonesense stops, so not impressed by these false reviews.
Hope to see you soon Dr Anderson !!! Heather Alfay and family

She is a prime example of having narcissistic personality disorder. She is completely arrogant. The thing is, she’ll never admit she has a narcissistic personality disorder . Narcissistic people think there is nothing wrong with how they treat people. I would avoid her at all costs. She absolutely degraded me and her lack of any kind of empathy was astounding. I was horrified at the way I was treated as a patient. She’s a waste of space in healthcare. Shame on you Patti. This is a warning to future patients.

Dr. Anderson has helped so many of us that it really makes me sad to think people I sat and talked to in her office would write the lies that they have. I believe there is a judgement day
I still need you Dr

I seen Dr. Anderson in abbotsford fo 5 years and for some reasonn she left. She has been the best doctor I have ever had. Yes she is a straight shooter and calls it how it is. She does not like idiots and lies and I could imagine that hearing that all day could make anyone a little jayded. I miss our conversation about gardening very much and would be willing to drive from Abbotsford to Whiterock just to see her.
