Our Patients’ Comments
Quote from Bob E-mail to a friend

“a medical professional told me to check out the nurse practitioners’ clinic.  I did, filled in a brief application form, handed it in and waited for a response.  Soon thereafter I was informed that I had an appointment with one of the nurse practitioners.  That turned out to be a one-hour interview concerning my medical history.  This was soon followed by an appointment with a doctor at the same office, then a physical examination by the nurse practitioner.

It felt nice to be receiving all this professional and caring medical attention right here in Sudbury.  And the head nurse in Ontario, during a recent visit to the city, agreed with me when she called this clinic “a shining example of an alternate way to provide high quality care to people who need it.”

“I have been with the Sudbury District Nurse Practitioner Clinics since they began in 2007 and since that time I am happy to say I am on the road to recovery.  Always friendly, taking the time needed to discuss all of your problems and deal with them in a professional, systematic and thorough manner.  Always ensuring that if others are required (i.e. Specialist) no hesitation was taken to refer you to the right person.  Rarely off schedule. Appointments are almost always on time or early.”

“The service at the clinic is absolutely wonderful.  The staff is always very friendly and helpful and willing to accommodate.”

 
Quote from Beth E-mail to a friend

“Six months prior to the launching of the SDNPC I was already looking for a nurse practitioner, so I was very happy to be accepted into the new clinic on Riverside Drive.”
 
“I have so far met two of the nurse practitioners at the clinic - the one who conducted my intake interview, as well as my regular clinician.  I had been hoping to receive excellent health care and I must say my expectations have been exceeded.  The level of competence of the NPs is impressive.  In addition, during appointments, I feel no time pressure, and my clinician really listens to my concerns and takes a holistic view of my situation.  Finally, the atmosphere is friendly and relaxed - most conducive, in my view, to an optimal client-practitioner relationship.  It brings to mind the image of the family practitioners of days long gone by.”
 
“I understand that the Sudbury clinic is the first of its kind in Ontario.  Many more are needed as this is certainly a winning model of health care delivery!”
