Dr. Aganaba, performed surgery on my left foot in 2007. His work has never bothered me and I can walk without pain at that injury site. Dr. Aganaba is an angel.
I wish I would have rated and told this success story about Dr. Aganaba's precision workmanship earlier.
Dr. Aganaba, Thank you. I wish you the best in retirement and I appreciate your work, care and results.
Thank you Dawson Creek Hospital, staff, northern medical transportation service, Dr. Aganaba, my roommate for picking me up. Everyone did a great job.

I had a knee replacement in September of 2018. The knee is just about 100% again. Dr. Aganaba was in to see me several times in the hospital after my operation. Since I was discharged, I have had 3 followup appointments with x-rays. All good. My only complaint? The terrible food at the hospital.

To start, front desk staff Jeannette, absolutely wonderful!. As I was from out of town she squeezed me in to see Dr. Aganaba when my husband was there for an appointment. Dr. looked at my shoulder and knee, said torn rotator cuff needed repairing and we should proceed with the knee replacement we had discussed a few times over the years. Was advised that the rotator cuff repair would be booked within six months and the knee within a year. Both were booked and completed within the year. Both were extremely successful surgeries. I feel like a new person.

Had rotator cuff complete tear 20 plus years ago and all is still well, I never imagined the repair would last for all these years. The hospital at the time left a lot to be desired, medical staff needs to realize people are not textbooks

Not only did i need two total hip replacements, each hip was protruded. As best as i can understand the cartilage was completely worn and the femur was essentially working its way through my pelvis . It was made clear to me that i needed the replacements, however being stubborn and afraid of surgery, i refused help for many years.
And as such by the time Dr. Aganaba corrected my hips i was an absolute mess. My gait was horrible. I was in agony and often the pain would momentarily paralyze me. Nor did i ever sleep through the night and my quality of life was abysmal. Cortisone and prescription drugs did nothing for me.
After suffering a fall, i realized i needed my hips corrected and now. The attending ER physician said my hips are "horrible".
Both hips are now corrected and I am incredulous as to how good i feel. It was the best decision i have made to date. I had to learn how to walk properly again because i am now pain free and no longer had to compensate for the pain or expect it to come roaring back.
Dr. Aganaba did a fantastic job and I suspect i was not an easy surgery. So I would like to thank him for restoring my quality of life. I feel normal and am fortunate to have been able to utilize his services. I feel like I'm gliding when i walk. No longer does it feel like i have crushed glass or spikes driven into my joints.
And I would also like to thank Dr. Aganabas assistant Jeanette. She went above and beyond securing my post-operative needs. As well a huge thank you to the post op RN'S, LPN'S, and physiotherapists. I have never experienced that level of front line health care. We whine about emergency room wait times but when you need them, they're there.
Again a huge thank you to Dr. Aganaba and his team.

Saw Dr. Aganaba 2 years ago, he was quick to rush me into surgery without proper imaging. Turns out it was a small tear that would have healed within 6 weeks and now I have two large scars roughly 5.5 inches long that are 100% unnecessary. I then left, still high on my medications and in lots of pain but he sent me home. I ended up getting a severe pulmonary embolism because he didn't speak with me post-op. He then proceeded to blame me during our 6 month check up. My ACL has torn again since then and I will NOT be seeing him again. Horrible surgeon, would never recommend him.

My mom fell and broke her hip. She is 93. She went to hospital and the Dr. Did the surgery that day. He was very professional and answered all my questions. His receptionist was excellant!
