Saw him in Dorval.

Fibromyalgia seems to be the only thing he knows how to diagnose, despite being sent to him with a firm diagnosis from another doctor I needed to be treated with. He was also pretty rude, too. I kept trying to give him chances to make it right but, he had no interest in doing so. Don't understand why he's a rheumatologist, doesn't seem to like his job much.

February 10th, 2023, I was diagnosed with anti-bodies for Hashimoto'a thyroiditis. My condition continues to deteriorate because he profiled me. He half-pays attention to you, and ignores your doctors and their diagnosis and makes up his own. Treatment didn't work because I DIDN'T have Fibromyalgia! BIG shock! still hasn't apologized or try to make it right for me to this day, either.

I repeat what everyone else is saying, no bed-side manner or class. Clearly doesn't care. Just wants to get paid and go home while the patient suffers. It's not always Fibromyalgia, listen to your patients. Our pain, situations, are real. An anti-depressant will not magically make my OA or Hashimoto's go away.

He is a great doctor and takes the time to talk to his patients, He also calls his patients, unlike other doctors who have the nurses or assistants do the calling.

A great doctor have been seeing him for about 8 years.
When my GP and pain specialist couldn't diagnose the reason for my pain he did. He is a caring, pleasant individual. I've left the province and will miss him immensely

Educated but NO class. Bad bedside manners. Untrustworthy and brash.

I agree with previous reviewers. I have a followed up with him at his Montreal clinic, and it was a very unpleasant meeting. His has such a fustrated attitude when I told him I have new symptoms and would like to ask for further test. He just throw the prescriptions on the table and our meeting lasted about 10min.

Terrible bedside manner. Had no interest in his patient. Only wants to get rid of his patients as fas as possible. Did bot even asked how I was or if any changes in my condition. Useless doctor don't bother going to see him!
