Dear Editor,
I would very much like to thank you for your Sept. 10 article about the services offered at the Gabriola Professional Centre here onGabriola Island
The Gabriola Professional Centre is an integral part of these services. I have been a patient of the three doctors who have held their practices at this location the last six years, including Dr. MacKenzie. I have been referred to the top gynaecologist onVancouver Island , an exceptional ophthalmologist, a leading allergist and an expert on breathing disorders. I also have complete access to preventative and alternative medicine here at the Gabriola Professional Centre. In all cases I have had nothing but the very best of care and attention.
I would not be alive today without the incredible attention, care, and professional expertise of the first responders on this island, and that was before we had any doctors on call. This included travelling toNanaimo
What your article reminded me of was that we may want to keep our attention focused on the fact that we do indeed have excellent medical services already available. Perhaps we should be considering adding more preventative and alternative health care to these existing services.
We could then keep our attention and funds on supporting and increasing all of the services, instead of raising money for something that may or may not be achievable, or realistic to uphold.
