Completely agree with one of the previous comments that this doctor should not be allowed to practice due to his arrogance, very poor interpersonal skills and lack of basic human respect (or absence of it?). I have heard the same opinion from too many former patients of him. I brought my mother into the emergency with high blood pressure. Out of the blue Dr. Burkhill insisted that she had a urinary tract infection despite a negative urine test! If not a friendly advice and help from a nurse on duty, my mom would have been given a handful of antibiotics!!! Those people that speak good of this doctor are poor souls that have never had a chance to see a true medical professional with proper work ethic skills. They would have had a completely different opinion if they had seen Dr. Ward, or Dr. Mare, or Dr. DeRidder, or Dr. Claassen.

How do guys like this get to be dr’s? Arrogant. He even took a real estate dealer phone call in the middle of an appointment with me in the room! No apologies either. Either take care of people or speculate on realestate-but don’t do the latter on my time.

Very arrogant.Takes business calls when I’m in the office waiting to talk to him.He has no bedside manner.More interested in real estate than patients.I am looking for another doctor fast!

Dr.Birkhill is a compassionate and caring doctor. He is responsible for the hospital and is a competent doctor.

Dr Birkhill has no compassion and doesn’t listen to his patients. He treats everyone as a number and doesn’t show any concern for anyone’s well being. Unfortunately he is the only Dr in Lac La Biche you can get into on short notice… because he is arrogant and rude!
