Trefor Nodwell, MD CM, FRCSC in Ottawa

It's been four years since I had an extended abdominoplasty after extreme weight loss with Dr. Nodwell, and I can confidently say it was one of the best decisions of my life. The results have held up beautifully over time, a true testament to his surgical expertise, attention to detail, and commitment to excellence. From the very first consultation, Dr. Nodwell made me feel heard, respected, and fully informed. He was incredibly thorough in explaining the procedure, setting realistic expectations, and ensuring I felt confident every step of the way. His team was equally supportive and compassionate, making the entire experience smooth and reassuring. Now, almost half a decade later, I still look in the mirror and feel grateful. The physical transformation was remarkable, but the emotional and psychological impact has been just as life-changing. I feel more confident, comfortable, and empowered in my body, and that’s a gift I carry with me every single day. If you're considering surgery and looking for a surgeon who combines exceptional skill with genuine care, I can't recommend Dr. Nodwell highly enough. He truly changed my life.

Excellent, professional, kind, empathetic,, top notch. I could go on and on. I have never written a google review before, but just had to for Dr. Nodwell and his team. I was so very fortunate to have been referred to Dr. Nodwell after complications in my healing from reconstructive surgery (performed by another surgeon in another Province). When I first met Dr. Nodwell, I was in such despair and wondered if there was any hope for me. I was told by another surgeon that this “might be it” and only a possibility of things getting much better over many months. Dr. Nodwell changed all of that and was my shining light of hope.. He navigated my healing plan perfectly, and all while doing so with kindness and confidence. He was so empathetic to my situation. His treatment plan for me has been spot on and over the past months he has given me my life back. I cannot praise Dr. Nodwell enough. Emily was there for me whenever I needed her. Livia has been absolutely amazing to work with , and her treatments for me have made such a difference. Her talent is incredible and so is she. I have just started working with Lynn , and she is a ray of sunshine, confident, and professional. I am so grateful to all of the team and would highly recommend any one of them to trust completely. The moment you walk in to the Ottawa Clinic you will be warmly welcomed and in very good hands.

I had a breast augmentation performed by Dr Nodwell in Jan 2019. I could not be happier with my experience!! Dr Nodwell has a wonderful beside manner and answered all my questions directly but in a caring manner. His team is very friendly and answered my emails quickly, getting in touch with anyone was never an issue. I always felt comfortable and informed, even day-of jitters were soothed by his calm yet upbeat personality. My surgery was smooth, everything was a very positive experience from my intake at the hospital to my post-op care. I tell everyone that asks to go see Dr. Nodwell! I wouldn't have changed a thing!

I chose Dr. Nodwell as my reduction surgeon after a lot of research and I'm so happy with my decision. He and his team were professional, friendly, informative, and just made the overall experience as easy as possible. They made themselves available to answer every one of my questions and put all of my anxieties at ease. In addition to the easy process, I'm really happy with my results and I would recommend Dr. Nodwell to anyone looking to get a reduction. :)

I had a great experience with Dr Nodwell and all of his staff. Dr Nodwell was very professional and down to earth from the beginning to the end. He explained every step of my breast reduction surgery to me and what to expect. He was always open to any questions I had. Any interactions I had with his office were always meet with the greatest of care, especially from Emily, who was always such a pleasure to deal with. She was the best! I was very impressed with the care I received with Dr. Nodwell and all of his people.
