When I discovered a lump in my breast all the tests were inconclusive or negative. He kept a carefull watch and after 3 months decided he wanted me to just chat with a surgeon as he was not comfortable with the results. Long story short I had breast cancer but without his persistance I may not have been diagnosed early on. I am now five years clear and thank Dr. Herget every day for being persistant in my diagnose. He is the best family doctor I have ever had.

Right on time. Easy to get in. Reticent to prescribe more drugs. Proposes follow up appointments where necessary.

I have been seeing Dr.Herget for quite sometime and I don't know why. He seems to always rush me. I try and talk to him about things but he's always standing by the door looking as if he wants to leave and move on to the next patient. I was in there the other day for a physical and I told him about a pain in my testicles and just touched 'em and said "oh they're fine" I don't dig that at all. He suggests treatments and then forgets to give them to me. I reiterate the seriousness of a situation to me and explain to him that I am very worried about something and then just sends me for a single test. I have been looking for a new doctor since. He's a very nice man, don't get me wrong. He's just not a great doctor (for me)it seems.

I agree with one poster that Dr. Herget can be very rushed at times, and does not allow sufficient time during an appointment to get into any details of anything more complicated than a runny nose. Having said that, he is relatively easy to make an appointment with, for a downtown doctor. He is very friendly and approachable, and does follow up on any problems, tests, medications, etc. Overall, I recommend him.

I have been seeing Dr. Herget for 33 years now, since I was 19 years old. He is fabulous! I tell him everything about my ‘life-style’ and health. He is very easy to talk to and he is very knowledgeable and I don’t know what I will do without him when it comes time for him to retire .

Dr. Herget is the best doctor I have had. We recently moved from CalgaryandI am afraid of the next doctor we may get if we are even able to find one.

I have been a patient of Dr. Herget’ for almost 40 years. He is a nice and kind man ,but never connects any dots . He is always toooo busy . I diagnosed myself and asked him to do the various tests that was required to get to my diagnosis, to his credit he did not argue with me, but said that could be true and the tests proceeded and guess what they were positive. my diagnosis was correct. I SHOULD NOT HAVE HAD TO DIAGNOSE MYSELF ISEN’T that the doctors job? My mother died of the same thing at the age of 64, so good thing I was on top of my game. he is a great guy just too busy to do a proper job of being a doctor
