A Caring Doctor Who Listens

Family Doctor: Dr. Emile Muller

Our family physician’s name is Emile Muller from Strathmore, AB. I was only a few months new to Strathmore and being seen by the ‘on call’ doctor in emergency who just happened to be Dr. Muller. After discussing my reason for being there, I mentioned that my boys and I didn’t have a family doctor. Dr. Muller was good enough to tell me to phone his office the next day, mention my name and that he’d said that he would take us on. I cannot tell you how surprised and happy I was to have found a doctor in the area.

On one scheduled visit, after work one day, shortly before I was supposed to leave I’d gotten a call from my youngest boy’s school saying that he’d stuck tiny pebbles in his ear and staff did not feel comfortable attempting to remove said pebbles. I picked him up and brought him to my appointment. Dr. Muller simply got what looked like the biggest pair of tweezers I’d ever seen and calmly removed the pebbles while having a very comforting bedside manner with my 8-year-old who was wide-eyed…….to say the least!

He then gave him some sage advice…..’do not put rocks in your ears on a dare!!’

My oldest boy who at times requires referrals to his pediatrician and orthopedic surgeon are always sent promptly.

Overall, I find Dr. Muller to be a very caring doctor who listens when you need him to. My boys and I are very happy that we are his patients.
