Dr Fowke was my Doctor for 10yrs while I lived in Banff. She delivered both our children and was extremely helpful in both prenatal care as well as helping a young couple deal with their first child. Dr Fowke was very aware of our entire family history and this allowed her to make very acurate diagnosis. Dr Fowke also made sure that when we were experiencing times of health concerns that she gave us her home phone number and told us to call if we needed her. Now that we are in NS, my wife and I miss Dr Fowke dearly.

Dr. Fowke is so knowledgeable, caring and will persevere and investigate a troubling illness or condition at length to achieve a diagnosis. She is very willing to refer to specialists if needed.

My experience has been nothing but wonderful. Dr. Fowke is very open minded and kind. She takes many factors into consideration when treating her patients. She is always one step ahead in the planning phase, and what I admire most is her ability to consider new approaches and suggestions from the patient and from evidence-based sources. While other physicians are strongly focused on immediate solutions, Dr. Fowke usually gets to the root of the problem and employs alternative methods that look at immediate solutions, and consider long-term benefits.
It saddens me that people want immediate gratification and perceive her to be inconsiderate. Dr. Fowke does have a busy practice and time is precious. But for those of us who know her, she cares deeply and wants what is best for her patients and families. I know so many others who have had amazing experiences. She has had so many beautiful births / deliveries, and so many people have remarked at her amazing techniques to enhance the labor process and engage the family for an amazing once in a lifetime experience.
Dr. Fowke is healthcare professional who cares and is an intelligent and amazing practitioner.

This might be the worst doctor I have ever been to. I don’t say that lightly as I have seen quite a few doctors in several different countries and I’m not sure how Dr. Fowke is still practicing medicine. I went in after having a snowboarding accident and hitting my head and getting whiplash in my neck. She didn’t check me for any concussion symptoms and didn’t even go near my neck, just dismissed it as whiplash and told me to heat/ice it. Following this I went to work and felt completely off not being able to focus or balance properly. Turns out I had quite a concussion and was off work for nearly a month experiencing awful symptoms made worse by a misdiagnoses. Many people in Banff have had similar experiences with her as I found out later. Don’t waste your time.

Dr. Fowke has been my Dr. for the past 20 years…i always feel that i can open up and talk to her about anything without judgement. I know that there are many nights at the hospital besides her daily practice. When my brother died she was extremely kind. I read with sadness some of these comments thinking about this beautiful Doctor who gives so much. Thanks Dr. Fowke.
