Valerie Lemaine, MD, MPH, FRCSC

"My name is Nomi, I’m a transgender woman and I have been in care by Dr. Valerie Lemaine for about 2yrs now and she has consistently shown me that she cares. I had a breast augmentation surgery roughly two years ago and since I met her she showed me she cares more about me as a human being than her client. Honest, genuine feedback, advice, and encouragement. I feel like I left from a dear friend’s house with every visit. I leave my apartment in confidence. I feel supported as a transgender woman in her care. I’m still beaming with gratitude from my last visit with Dr. Valerie Lemaine. I’m grateful our paths have crossed..I trust her with any procedure that she offers. I’m one with my gender identity because of her work!!"

"I have had the pleasure of Dr. Lemaine as my plastic surgeon for 13 years now. It’s been a wonderful surgeon/patient relationship but I’ve also come to think of her as my friend. She has always been compassionate and caring as well as extremely thorough as she wants the best outcome for her patients. She welcomes your input and will discuss at length the pros and cons of a situation. Her surgical skills are amazing as well as her caring and empathetic manner. I have been extremely happy with my surgical outcome. I highly recommend her as you will be in the best caring hands!"

"Dr. Lemaine helped guide me through the process of getting a preventative double mastectomy and reconstruction (2 surgeries in total). I have never had surgery before and she was there every step of the way to help answer all my questions and guide me through the process and follow up visits. I am so happy with the results and could not have found a more caring and competent surgeon!"

"Dr. Lemaine is a amazing surgeon and wonderful woman all-around. She is honest and takes the time to listen and explain things in a very compassionate matter. Her staff are top-notch and very responsive to all requests. My reconstruction after my prophylactic bilateral mastectomy looks better than I could have imagined and I had zero complications. Super happy with my new look and would highly recommend her!"

"Dr Lemaine was a God sent to me. She was my second opinion on my explant surgery. Her techniques and expert skills resulted in the best possible outcome for me. I'm so pleased and happy. In addition to her fabulous work - her personality, extraordinary listening skills, kindness, understanding and explaining all my options were above and beyond my expectations. I wish I could review 10 stars instead of just 5!"
