What recent reviews say

Staff and surgeons deliver calm, clear explanations before procedures, making nervous patients feel confident. Multiple procedures fit into single visits with minimal wait. Surgeons pay attention to cosmetic detail, like hiding suture tails; aftercare guidance is thorough. One complaint about referral communication stands out sharply against overwhelmingly positive experiences.

The clinic handles both minor removal work (lipomas, moles, cysts, skin tags) and surgical cases (carpal tunnel, inverted nipple repair). Many procedures qualify for OHIP coverage. Named surgeons include Dr. Hossein, Dr. Hopkins, Dr. Dibildox, and Dr. Bodie; staff consistently receive praise for warmth and organization.

Praised for
  • skilled, attentive surgeons
  • thorough pre-procedure explanation
  • efficient appointments and quick turnaround
  • friendly, professional staff across all roles
  • careful stitching and attention to cosmetic detail
Watch-outs
  • poor communication after referral
  • lack of follow-up notification

  • OHIP billing for many procedures

Worth knowing

  • Named surgeons: Dr. Hossein, Dr. Erik Hopkins, Dr. Dibildox, Dr. Gregory Bodie

  • Many removals covered by OHIP after a small medical fee
  • Appointment turnaround sometimes same-day after consultation

Dr. Serge Goekjian, MD, FRCSC

4.7(24)✓ Google-verified

Most patients report a highly skilled, compassionate surgeon who takes time to explain procedures thoroughly and delivers excellent results with minimal scarring. Breast reduction and facial procedures see particularly strong outcomes. Dr. Goekjian and his administrative team come across as professional and organised, though one patient cited inflexibility over a traffic delay and perceived rushing.

Dr. Lauren Willoughby, MD FRCSC

4.4(42)✓ Google-verified

Most reviewers praise Dr. Willoughby's surgical expertise and compassionate approach, particularly for breast reconstruction and reduction. Patients feel heard during consultations and report excellent results. However, some experienced significant problems: reception rudeness, communication delays when complications arose, and one patient dealt with post-surgical infection that was initially dismissed; staff responses have been uneven.
