Success Stories

Andrew Rouchotas - CEO, Cartika

The work your team does at Medcan is second to none.  You have a customer for life in me and my family. I have mentioned Medcan to hundreds of people all over the world in the last several months, as it’s simply the most unique health care service I have ever seen.

I had a very minor health issue that was controlled in 2-3 weeks with 2 pills a day, however I suffered through our health care system for 2 years - no one would treat me. One trip to Medcan and two weeks later I was being treated, and one week after that the symptoms - which were crippling from a business perspective and personal perspective - were going away.

Medcan is simply the most important service available out there for people, companies and their families.

For a relatively healthy 45 year old with no symptoms nor belonging to any high risk group, Medcan's diligence resulted in the diagnosis of prostate cancer at its early stage. Medcan was with me throughout this ordeal, which included all the additional testing and documentation required for surgery, and has made it a less "stressful" process. I am extremely grateful to Medcan and its medical staff.

I completed my comprehensive health assessment today at Medcan. I wanted to send you a quick note of thanks.

The day was great, professional, and educational. Something that has always been lacking from my traditional health care experiences.

Everyone at Medcan was so helpful and polite. My own family doctor is always at least 1 hour behind schedule. At Medcan, I barely had time to read the newspaper between tests.

The short session with the fitness / personal trainer person was an eye opener and provided me with information I had not had since high school.

When I came to Medcan for a Comprehensive Health Assessment, I considered myself to be in excellent health – I had no symptoms to suggest otherwise – and was simply wanting to do have a comprehensive medical check-up, as many of my friends have been doing on an annual basis. However, during my Assessment, Medcan’s ultrasound technician noticed a mark on my kidney that needed further investigation. I was booked to have a CT scan, which determined that I had a tumour on my kidney. At that stage I was recommended to see a urologist. As I was planning a two week trip to South Africa, the surgeon recommended a second ultrasound to see if the tumour was growing and if I would need to cancel my trip. The ultrasound technician at the medical lab had a difficult time detecting the tumour because of its position, even though she knew it was there, and commented that Mehdi, the ultrasound technician at Medcan, must be very skilled to have detected it. Ultimately, the surgeon recommended removing the tumour, as there was an 80% probability that it was malignant, which, post surgery, was confirmed through biopsy.

Today, I am doing well and I am very grateful to the Medcan team for the diagnosis and for detecting the tumour at the early Phase I stage. Had my cancer not been detected in its early stages, the outcome could have been far more serious later on. I have become Medcan’s greatest advocate and recommend Medcan to all my friends and associates.

I have been attending the Medcan Clinic for well over 7 years and have had the benefit of treatment and advice from several of Medcan's physicians and technicians in several fields of medicine.

Last year I had to deal with several health issues related in part to a very heavy workload and turbulent financial markets which resulted in sinusitis, stress(emotional and physical), some hypertension and blood pressure issues.

For the past 4/5 years my physician at Medcan has been there to give me advice when needed on a timely basis. I want you to know that Medcan should be proud to have such an accomplished doctor on staff.

I continue to recommend business and individuals to the Medcan Clinic. My recommendation is made all the easier based on the treatment and advice I have received from Medcan.

I had my first experience at Medcan yesterday. From entry into your very nice facilities to the friendly service from all of your team, it was fantastic!

Everyone was consistently good natured and professional.

Great job building an excellent team.

Dear Medcan,

I wanted to write you a personal note to let you know how impressed I was with the quality and service of your people during my first physical.  I am kicking myself as I’ve recommended the service to others, but only now took the time to go through the process myself.  

Once I made the conscience decision to invest in my health and proceed with your services, I found from the very first moment that I was greeted, to when I was leaving, I was acknowledged by one of your team members. At every single treatment, your staff welcomed me, gave me their name and wanted to make sure that I was treated efficiently and effectively. I was being moved at such a fast pace that I could hardly check my e-mails in between the various test procedures. The experience was first class.  

My appointment was even moved up by one hour to accommodate my need to get back to work. All the services had been performed so promptly.  I found my doctor to be very warm, and approachable. He listened with great detail and responded to my various questions and requests.

Overall, I want to congratulate you and your team of running a top notch medical health operation that really understands customer service on a very personal level.

I had my annual Medcan medical today. It was an excellent experience.

The waiting room was calm and we waited just a few minutes in all cases. All Medcan staff seemed to know exactly where I was and what step in the process was due next.

As always, staff were very friendly and professional and in every case introduced themselves by name.

Congratulations on the upgrades you have orchestrated at Medcan.  The operation really has come a long way over the past 5 years.  I had a very successful appointment last week and my Doctor as always continues to be wonderful at his job.  He is a credit to your organization.

I would also thank you for taking care of all of my employees who come to Medcan.  It’s comforting to know they are in good hands.
