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.

Dr. Auguste looked after my son after an ACL tear in his knee. His surgery was a difficult recovery but she was involved in all the steps in his recovery. He returned to skiing and plans to return to soccer next year of this pandemic disappears. Thanks to Dr. Auguste and staff at HUmber River Hospital for a great job! And a great experience.

Dr. Auguste performed both my knee replacements. She is the smartest and most personable doctor that I know. She thoroughly explained the procedure in a manner that was easy to understand but never condescending. I couldn't help but be confident in her skill as a surgeon as well as in the rehab work that her team provides post surgery. Love, love, love this doctor!

Dr. Auguste has been my orthopedic doctor for about 10 years. We first met at Humber River when I broke my ankle playing soccer. I recovered well from that fracture and went back to soccer and then tore my ACL. She fixed that and I went back to soccer after that until I injured my other knee. I have been treated by Dr. Auguste since then and have nothing but good things to say about her care, concern, attention to details, and the way she worked with me and my physio to get me back to soccer AGAING!!!

I had a virtual assessment by Dr. Jacqueline yesterday. She was professional, took the time to review my information and my doctors record and then we chatted about my shoulder for quite awhile. It was somewhat difficult to do a virtual meeting to see my shoulder but we managed. It will be nice to see her wehn the COVID is done. Much appreciated. I had a lot of questions that she answered and she set me up with a new physical therapy place and some other resources. Thank you. High recommended.

Dr. August was the doctor I saw for my knee when I first tore my ACL. She did a surgery that was great for about 2 years. I played soccer again and tore the ACL again. She did it again and its been great ever since. The staff in the fracture clinic were very nice and the whole process with physio over there was great too. I receommend this surgeon.

I saw Dr. Auguste today for an orthopedics consultation and she was very straight forward and took her time to ask me questions and appeared to actually listen. She spent alot of time on the physical testing and she was very nice and seemed to be very thorogh.

I saw Dr. Auguste for the arthritis in my knees and hips. She was very thorough, spent time with me, answered all of my questions, and referred me for very specific physio and chiro treatments. Hopefully I can avoid a replacement surgery and will see in the future. But really good doctor and staff.
