I had Dr Snyman for years as a family doctor. I found him very thorough and honest. He told me what I needed to hear ( exercise and diet) instead of just writing a prescription. I liked he wasn't afraid to send me for tests. However the problem was when I was diagnosed with hyperparathyroidism and I had to insist on a referral to an endocrinologist. It took 2 years for him to get me a gastroscope and colonoscopy. Not sure why and then I had to see Dr Otto and I got it done in 2 weeks. Also found I was having to remind him of who I was and what we've been dealing with for the past 4 years. I was seeing him sometimes 2-3 times a moth and each time I had to remind him of my health issues and past treatments. I final got frustrated and found I another family doctor that I've only seen 3 times and remembers me and what is going on. My new Dr also found a few issues that tests have been showing in the past coupl years that I was unaware of and received no treatment for in the past. Dr Snyman is good for initial assessment and occasional/minor issues but fails to deal with ongoing issues.

If your appointment is at 1pm go there at 3pm, ’cause u’ll be waiting for a long while. He’s a great doctor but have patients when waiting.

Dr. Snyman was very knowledgeable when it came to a car collision that I was involved in. He is my regular dr and was unable to see him at emerg. I saw him 3 days later after a different dr told me I could go to work and was unable to use my right arm. He looked things over and found that I had severe whip lash with a pinched nerve at the c6 and c7 vertabrate. He gave me muscle relaxers and pain killers nad sent me to a massage therapist…good job

Dr. Snyman is the best doctor I have ever had. He is sincere, takes time to listen and hears you, asks lots of questions to diagnose, and shows the patient that he cares about you. He is truly a doctor who loves his work, is there for YOU and wants the best for you. His medical knowledge is profound. You won’t find any better.
