He has repeatedly failed to take my symptoms seriously, even after objective evidence of deteriorating condition.

Seemed to get personal pleasure from giving me a digital rectal exam of my prostate. Shocking.

Dismissive, arrogant, rude - Dr. Lei is not concerned with your symptoms. Despite repeatedly explaining the severe and concerning symptoms I had, he continued to be dismissive and sent me away with a pat on the back.
If you're concerned about your health in any way, do not visit him.

Dr. Calvin Lei is by far the worse doctor I've ever encountered. He's impatient, lacks empathy and extremely dismissive. It took him less than 2 minutes to start yelling at me when I probed further about my situation. It may not be part of the job description to be kind to patients but this level of disrespect for human decency is unacceptable. I do not recommend visiting the Bay-College walk-in clinic if you'll end up seeing him.

I visited the clinic to get my blood test and X-ray done for my back, as I had a history of lumbar disc herniation. I also wanted to check if my kidneys were functioning properly.

When it was my turn, the doctor walked in without even greeting me, quickly glanced at my results, and dismissively told me that everything was fine. I was concerned because I had a kidney problem diagnosed in China, and I wanted to ensure there were no issues. Politely, I asked if I could see the reports since he barely spent any time reviewing them, and I wasn't sure if he had seen them at all. Unfortunately, the doctor was incredibly impatient and replied with an impatient tone, saying, 'I already told you that you have no problem.'

I still wanted to discuss my back issue and mentioned that I had lumbar disc herniation, which I had previously been diagnosed with in China. Without letting me finish my sentence, the doctor rudely said, 'Then go back to CHINA,' repeating his words word by word, which I found incredibly offensive and disrespectful.

"GO BACK TO CHINA"

What makes this situation even more frustrating is that the doctor himself is Chinese, and I couldn't understand why he was being so condescending throughout the entire interaction. To my surprise, I later found out that this doctor could speak perfect Chinese, as he is from Hong Kong or Guangdong in China. Even though he knew my English was not fluent enough to describe my issues adequately, he didn't bother to speak Chinese to me. Instead, he watched me struggle with a dictionary to communicate (throughout the entire conversation, he just look at me checking the dictionary of words like "lumbar disc herniation" It's disheartening to see such behavior from a medical professional.

Arrogant and not helpful. Does not listen to what you say at all.

Dr Calvin Lei is a rare breed of caring, compassionate doctors who really listens to his patients. I had him as my primary physician in Toronto throughout the 1990's. He treated my back pain (Shuremann's Disease) not with addictive narcotics but with Novocaine injections once a week allowing me to continue to work and enjoy life with much less pain and none of the mind numbing opiates other doctors wanted to treat me with. If you have a need for a real serious doctor to help you deal with a physical problem, this is one of the best.
Thank you for giving me hope and peace of mind that I still benefit from to this day.

The most arrogant and awful GP who doesn't like patients asking questions. Poor bedside manner.

Average doctor, terrible manners. I have to agree that with the other reviews that say that he is not great at listening.

I quit Dr. Lei years ago but unfortunately a family member, out of frustration in trying to find a new GP, persisted with him. I can only tell you, that the lack of attention to detail lead to long term side effects from an over prescribed drug, that could have had devastating outcome had WE not caught the error.
