The worst clinic I’ve ever been to! The RN Alison and Dr. Pezim are the most unprofessional people I have ever encountered. I had the most horrific experience where the Dr. and nurse laughed at my pain and said that my story doesn’t make sense to him, comparing my issue to someone dying and having a heart attack.. disregarding my symptoms and did not perform a full examination. This was a sever form of malpractice and I ended up in the ER because of it. I would avoid this place at all cost and they shouldn’t even have a license to practice to be honest. Save yourself the money time and tears and don’t go to this clinic.

Dr Pezim is very professional, knowledgeable and cares about his patients. Both the treatment and follow-up care were fantastic. I was always made to feel comfortable by himself and his staff. I would highly recommend him.

Had a scheduled appointment via phone call as we are currently dealing with a pandemic. Unfortunelty I've been suffering with fissures for the last three months and after two different doctors was referred to Dr Pezim. For his expert opionion. Feeling a sense of excitement to finally speak with a specialist I was quickly disappointed when one minute into our call I felt he had terrible attitude. Tried explaining what I've been dealing with but he was quick to cut me off and question why none of the medications I've been using haven't worked. Told me to cut out coffe chocolate ,alcohol ( which I don't consume ) and tea. I explained I was doing warm baths and basically any kind of home remedy to relieve the pain only be made felt I was stupid and none of those things work. When I told him how I was literally in pain for weeks at a time in complete agony he proceeded to say that he had many big strong men that would be down on their knees in pain and even had some commit suicide. Needless to say I literally shut down at this point. He could obviously tell I was getting quiet and and the nerve to ask if I was losing faith. At this point I basically told him that I was and wanted to get The call over with sooner than later. He then asked where I get my prescription and up the dozage that I am already applying and said he would call me in a week. I'm not looking forward to hearing from him and I think I'm going to speak to my GP for another recommendation to see someone else. Sadly most of the reviews I've read I can relate too. Wish I had of read them first before I took Dr Pezim call 😞

He just says : I DON'T KNOW, and He don't listen to you , he don't care , he don't refer you to someone else , I think he is one of those Dr's who prescribe same medicine for all patients. he just makes fun of you , rude, short temper and not caring If you are in pain. such a waste of time. I give this 1 star not to him , but to his great helpful and polite staff. I will definitely update my case here so everybody knows there is a cure for all pains if your Dr knows his job.

I highly recommend Dr Pezim. I credit him with saving my life. The first Dr. I went to gave me a colonoscopy (for severe rectal bleeding). Said that he did not find anything, and sent me away without answering the bleeding question. Went back to see him because I now had a large "hemorrhoid". He sent me home with another prescription for hemorrhoid cream saying that we had to do our due diligence before looking at something more serious. He said my GP was quite the "alarmist" because she mentioned the severe bleeding, and questioned whether it could be cancer. He blew her off told me that cancer was unlikely. He looked at the hemorrhoid but did not examine me physically. I went back to my GP and told her I wanted a second opinion. I was sent to see Dr. Pezim. He examined me and told me that I did not have a hemorrhoid, but a tumor. He spoke right away about getting into treatment and what I could expect. He did the biopsy the next day, and it was indeed cancer. It was found to be stage 3b anal cancer. It turns out that a colonoscopy the first Dr. performed was not even the appropriate test. Dr Pezim referred me to all cancer clinics in the lower mainland and told me to take the first appt that came up from anywhere. I have gone through treatment and am cancer free. Thank you Dr Pezim for your wonderful care.

This is not a health professional but a money-grubbing charlatan who is in the business of traumatizing patients by telling them their symptoms are imagined. The "research findings" he cites have no scientific basis; he is a thug in doctor's clothing
