    Had an appointment booked for 5 months and had them call me 2 weeks prior to the consultation to tell me that the doctor would not be meeting with me because I am 28.. the audacity of leaving this to last minute has me feeling gaslit. Purchased a prescription, had rides planned, time booked off work for the doctor to just turn around and not even have a conversation with me is unacceptable. I am married and been in a committed relationship for ten years now. I’m pretty sure I am aware of what I want in my life but the fact the doctor won’t even have a consultation with me is pathetic. Don’t waste your time booking anything with this practice unless you are 30 and have kids already because that was just the immature situation I was just put through.

    Had my vasectomy performed by Dr Dumais, who has taken over for Dr Weiss who has since retired. She was absolutely excellent. Great bedside manner, clear explanations of what was happening and any potential discomfort that might be felt during each step. Entire procedure from freezing to finish took under 10 minutes. Before beginning Dr Bercier confirmed my age (31), that I had no children, and that I was 100% certain I never wanted to have any (and that my partner felt the same way). She reiterated that while surgical reversal is sometimes possible, the procedure should be considered permanent. Nurses/office staff were friendly and efficient. Got up from the table a bit too quick and ended up sitting down in the chair and fainting. They were right on top of things and immediately went into their usual routine for when those things happen. We had a little chuckle about it, and at no point did it feel weird or judgemental which I very much appreciated. A couple of other notes based on some things mentioned in a few other reviews here: - Total out of pocket fees are $170, consisting of a $20 deposit and $150 on the day of the procedure. Those costs are detailed in the attached photo of the “Pre and Post Vasectomy Kit”. As detailed on the page patients can choose to pay only for the specific items/services they want, and they also give you a week post-procedure to request a refund and pay only for the needed items. This information is not provided anywhere before going in, so most will just pay the $170 and be done with it. While some of these costs are certainly quite highly inflated, they do help make up for the fairly minimal compensation the clinic receives from OHIP for each procedure. - Website is a bit of a mess, although most of the important bits are easy to find (and all the most important info is attached to the emails you’ll get). Specifically one thing they have changed is that you do *not* need to travel to the office to pick up your vasectomy package before the procedure! You are given it after your appointment just before leaving. - To the few complaining about pain/discomfort lasting more than the first week and “not being made aware of the risks”… did you not bother to fully read through the documentation available both on the website as well as repeatedly sent to you in the emails? All of the risks and rates of various complications are explicitly laid out in advance. Every body is different, and there is a small chance of a variety of complications. Choosing to ignore the provided information and then complaining that you wouldn’t have gone through with it if you knew is just ridiculous. One last recommendation for the doctors here: I highly recommend investing the few thousand dollars towards having a professional web design company re-build you a new website from the ground up. The current site is a mess, particularly on modern phones, and this is something that will radically improve the patient experience. Edit 2023/10/24: Wow, the new website is looking great!

    Dr. Bercier was great! Polite, straight forward, ensured i was at ease and comfortable throughout the procedure. The admin staff were efficient, courteous and made me feel like i was in good hands. In and out in a matter or minute’s. Back to business as usual within 7-10 days. 10/10

    Dr Bercier was fantastic! He performed my son’s circumcision. He really took the time to explain in detail the procedure and the recovery. He also made sure I was comfortable with everything before proceeding and before we left. He even offered his personal number for any questions after hours. At the one week follow up he paid attention to detail and ensured everything was perfect. I highly recommend him!

    If you're under 30 y.o with no kids, don't waste your time. Even with my family doctor's referral, they refuse to operate on anyone under 30 y.o with no kids. Apparently you're not an adult and able to make your own decisions until 30 years old... It's better to regret not having children later on (even though I won't), than it is to regret HAVING children. Quite ridiculous.

    Going in is obviously a little stressful, you don't really know what to expect, but I found the staff incredibly supportive and friendly. Dr. Bercier was great, throughout the procedure keeping up a conversation etc as a distraction. Given the circumstances it was a good experience, with some very friendly people that helped calm my nerves.

    Staff was great. then again they deal with medicated men all day long. Dr. Bercier was great talked through the procedure so that there wasn`t any awkward silence. I had heard great things from both of them and I can now confirm that they are as good as people told me they were.

    The staff and Dr Bercier have created a very calm experience. In and on within 15 mins and the actual procedure was seriously 2 mins. Best in the biz!

  • 5/5 Maxx L. 6 months ago on Google
    Amazing. In and out in 20 minutes. Healing is going very well. Hardly feel a thing. In all honesty it's pretty nice to get a few days just to relax. Keep it up!

    Dr. Valerie Dumois did my vasectomy, and she was really quite kind willing to answer questions. It was for the most part painless and the pain you feel is minimal. Reception was also pretty great they answered all my questions to male sire I heal properly. Was great meeting them all and doing it the modern way or a scalpel and needle is definitely in every males favour. Thank you so much for being such great people

    Half an hour to my appointment they told me to wait outside(35 degrees celcius) until exactly my appointment. Dr. Bercier if you can call him a doctor had the most rude and disrespectful attitude I've had from a doctor. I asked him three questions to which he said he didn't care. During the procedure I simply asked how long does it take and he replied with "How long do you think it takes? Did you see me with the other patients?" I think his attitude was racially motivated because I'm not French. Don't come here! Go somewhere else!

    Great clinic, 5 stars all around. Leading up to the appointment they provide you with fantastic information that explains everything in detail. Great communication, super organized, friendly and professional. Everyone from reception, to the nurse, to the doctor - all were pleasant, efficient, and professional. It was a huge piece of mind. The doctor played my choice of music during the procedure. It was practically painless, with only minor discomfort for a brief moment, and it was quick. I am now recovering comfortably with very detailed instructions about how to enhance my recovery. Thank you Dr. Weiss and Dr. Bercier! Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Carolyn S. 1 year ago on Google
    Dr Bercier put me at ease by providing excellent instructions about post circumcision care and carefully reviewing risks and what to expect. He was very caring with my son. I would absolutely recommend going here for infant circumcision.

  • 5/5 Kevin N. 1 year ago on Google
    The whole process was quick , easy and simple. in less that 10 munites , the whole process was done . Dr Bercier was very kind and nice. There was no pain. I only took one pill of naproxen after the surgery. After that , I was good. The whole team was nice.

  • 5/5 Jesse C. 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely amazing experience. I was super nervous going in after hearing horror stories of others that didn’t use the laser. I would highly recommend Dr Bercier to anyone seeking this procedure as it is unobtrusive and much less painful then expected. It was over quickly and within a couple days I felt like I could be myself. The worst part of it was sitting on the couch not doing anything for a week but now that’s over nothing feels different and no pain or scarring! Everyone in the office was very helpful and professional leading up the procedure and post. All my questions were answered (even the ones I felt were stupid) without judgement and ensuring I felt comfortable.

  • 5/5 Hardy G. 2 years ago on Google
    Everyone at the clinic was very helpful & professional. Strict time keeping and the procedure was completed quick and efficient. Any discomfort was treated immediately and all questions answered as needed. Will definitely recommend their services.

  • 5/5 Steven B. 1 year ago on Google
    My personal experience was painless and quick. It was hard to believe I had just received a vasectomy!!! The staff were nice and funny at times! Very professional even played music of my choice during the procedure! I was nervous leading up to my vasectomy from talking with older people who have had one in the past but clearly over time the techniques have evolved and the horror stories I heard I did not experience one bit! I would definitely recommend this doctors practice if you care about your balls

  • 5/5 Stephen M. 1 year ago on Google
    I was told that Dr. Weiss and Dr. Bercier were the best on the city for this procedure and I can not agree more. There is a long wait to get an appointment, but it's worth the wait. There was very little pain and the recovery was quick. There was very little small talk which I appreciated and I was in and out in less than 20 minutes. Thank you to the staff and doctors for all the support. Fantastic service!!

  • 5/5 Marc B. 1 year ago on Google
    The process of getting my vasectomy was quite efficient. From walking in the office door to sitting down in my car again was only 20 minutes. The staff was very friendly in greeting you and providing instructions and Dr. Bercier was pleasant to deal with, friendly and gentle. Dare I say the experience was enjoyable! Any trepidation one has about the procedure, don’t worry! Thanks to all.

  • 5/5 Amanda V. 3 years ago on Google
    Dr. Bercier was so great! Bedside manner was excellent, hubby was comfortable and confident in the Doctor we used. Dr. Bercier was always available and easy to get a hold of (we had his personal cell number) which made it so nice instead of calling an office and potentially waiting for a call back! Hubby had the procedure done in early January and we just got our positive pregnancy test! We couldn't be happier to add to our family thanks to Dr. Bercier and his team

  • 5/5 Pier-Etienne R. 2 years ago on Google
    The whole process went very smoothly. All the information needed - before and after the procedure - was clear and precise. Totally recommends Dr Bercier!

  • 5/5 Alex B. 2 years ago on Google
    The hole team was very professional. The instructions were clear from the beginning and the staff was very welcoming. Dr. Bercier was very friendly and communicated very well on what was happening. He also made me feel comfortable making small talk. All and all, I am very please with the procedure

  • 5/5 Amirah S. 2 years ago on Google
    It was initially hard to get an appointment as I believe the office was close for summer holidays or something. But once we had an appointment everything was super easy, friendly and good. I would highly recommend the clinic.
