Having used the Alberta Health Care System over the last fourteen years I do indeed have a

perspective on my experience.

 

In 2005 I was was diagnosed with inoperable Lung cancer. Taking direction and advise from 

Dr Column Smith and with the help of Dr Bebb, I was successful in eradicating the tumour

after participating in a clinical trial that no doubt saved my life. The Baker Cancer center is

an Oasis of hope.

 

In 2011 My second battle with cancer ( Pancreatic) was waged and defeated by the skilled hands of 

Dr Elijah Dixon. Even though the cancer was rare ( one in a hundred thousand) he removed the

tumour and made it possible for me to carry on the fight. ( seventy five days on the 10th floor)

I could never repay the care I received from so many.

 

Then in 2013 I was taken to the Foothills by ambulance after suffering a heart attack. Once

again those skilled hands in ER saved my life by repairing blood vessels with stents. The follow

through with Dr Spencer my cardiologist was exemplary. 

 

From my family Doc to all the nurses that have helped me along the way , I cant say enough

about Alberta health and my  experience with all involved. In any other country, I'm not so

sure my outcome would been have quite so fortunate. If I can help in any way by reassuring

anyone who is in doubt about what they can expect from our health Care system, be glad to.
