Happy with Dr. Auguste attention to detail. She assisted me with my WCB claim and was very detailed in her notes. I appreciated this. I was able to better communicate my sit. to the board and get some physio for my injury to the shoulder. thanks. recommended.

Dr. Auguste did a rotor cuff repair on my right shoulder, unfortunately the anchor she installed broke and the surgery had to be repeated. It's been great ever since. Now I have to see her again with the same issue in my left shoulder.

i have to say I am a little pissed off. Dr. Jack has been my surgeon since I accidentally slammed an ax into my knee when I was cutting wood . I went to moiunt sinay and she was working in the casting clinic. as a first nations card holder I was somewhat resistnat to any advises from this little female doc. I expected some pumped up jock to fix me up. just being real. Anywhoo I spent three days in hospitl, speaking with plastic surgeon, norosurgeon and probaly three bone docs. I ended up with Dr. Jack. She is a jem. Just so happens that she grew up on a lake in Alberta on a reservation. She totally got me, got my issues, fixed my leg. I have seen her anually for braces and following visits. She is in our prayers.

I saw Dr. Auguste for a shoulder problem last year. She operated on my rotator cuf tears, She told me that the tear was very big but that if she was able to fix it, I should do well expecially with less pain. She reassured me. She sent me to physical therapy. She did a great job. I have a biut pain inhe front of the shoulder with lifting my arm up. But all in all I have more movements and alot less pain. I appreciste Dr. August. I am pleased with my returns. So, very good. thank you

Dr. Auguste looked after my mom for her hip replacement in 2018 and my dad for his knee replacement in 2017. They have both done very well. No canes or walkers. They go fishing and camping in their camper. They are not taking any strong pain pills. They have full recovery and I dont have to worry that I will have to help them for probaly several years now. Thank you to dr. Jackie and Dr. Barry Cane who helped look after them in the hospital both time. Such great docs over at Hmber Hospital. I was very pleased with the care and consideration and the whole team of physios and nruses. thank you. My life is better with all of this care as the eldest son.
