Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

My healing was rapid and complete!
I started seeing Dr. Ferland in late January because my c-section incision opened. The wound’s healing was further complicated because of blood thinners I was taking postpartum. Dr. Ferland was warm, attentive, and her expertise and experience were apparent from my very first visit and throughout my weekly visits. The treatment plan she developed and carried out for me led to my rapid and complete healing in about 4 weeks. I highly recommend Dr. Ferland for wound care— she is outstanding and very knowledgeable.

Excellent plastic surgeon and wound care doctor
Dr. Ferland took the time to explain everything, saw me every week until my wound was healed. She was not rushed and answered all my questions. I trust her and recommend her highly.

Dr. Ferland is a Lifesaver!
From the very beginning of my journey with Dr. Ferland, I felt comfortable and reassured that she knew what she was doing. My son who is a physician in Michigan also commented on how through she was and nowledgeable. As my treatments went on over time she continued to speak with me without appearing rushed or preoccupied. I always felt that I was the most important person in the room. I am very pleased with my recovery and would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Louise to everyone! Thank God for her

Extremely Patient and Knowledgeable!
My very first and subsequent visit have all been very positive. Dr; Ferland explained everything in laymen's terms to me. I felt comfortable with her recommendations and am excited to recommend her to all my friends. She has such a compassionate bedside manner and did not hesitate to explain procedures to my sister as well. I hope she never retires!!!

Very concerned for the well being of her patients
I am very happy that my friend recommended Dr Ferland for my surgery. Dr Ferland took the time to explain all steps of the procedure, answered all my questions and made sure I was comfortable the whole time. She was very accomodating with my follow up appointments to meet my very busy schedule.

Top Notch Wound Care
My Vascular Doctor referred me to the Wound Care Center at Memorial Hospital Pembroke for an extensive traumatic injury. Luckily I became Dr. Ferland's patient. From my first moments with Dr. Ferland I knew that I had a doctor who had a great bedside manner, had a lot of experience with wound care, was up front about the prognosis related to my long-term healing, willing to explain what specific care was needed , and very willing to consider my input and concerns. I went to the Wound Care Center twice a week for over three months and then weekly for another few months. During this time Dr. Ferland continued to treat me with care and respect as did the entire staff at the Center. I could not ask for better care.

OUTSTANDING
I came to Dr. Ferland with a terrible wound, a little scared, hesitant and knowing nothing about how this wound would be treated or heal. The moment I met Dr. Ferland I knew I was in very good hands. She explained the type of wound I had, how she planned to treat, how long it might take to heal and what I could expect in plain simple language. She said it would take some time and to have patience, she knew that was a challenge for me. I was compliant. Dr. Ferland made me feel extremely relaxed and positive that my wound was not so terrible. I love her chairside manner. She is very upbeat, bright, positive, honest and pulls no punches. She has a really good spirit about her. I was under her care for about 16 weeks. I also liked that she did not hurry her visits with me. She spent time and answered the thousands of questions I had. I would highly recommend Dr. Ferland! You will not be disappointed. She is OUTSTANDING!

Dr Ferland is a wonderful, caring doctor with a terrific bedside manner. I took my teenage daughter to see her 2-3 times per month for several months after she was involved in a very serious auto accident. Dr Ferland was the wound care specialist and she couldn't have been more kind and compassionate with my child. She definitely made my daughter feel at ease during every visit and i would absolutely recommend her to anyone in need of wound care. She certainly knows what she's doing and we are very grateful for the professional yet gentle care mu daughter received during those months of treatment. Thank you so much Dr Ferland!

I had a problematic abdominal wound that needed some serious attention that would not heal. I tried going to another doctor, but nothing worked. I met with Dr. Ferland because she was recommended to me as a miracle worker by more than one person well respected in the community. I was skeptical, but . The use state of the art wound management as well as the latest technology. I have had a complete turnabout. My abdominal wound is not healed. I could not have done it without Dr. Louise Ferland.

So happy I was sent to see Dr Ferland at the wound center at Pembroke for my leg ulcers. I can't believe how quick it healed because no one else could get it to heal for the past 8 months. She is amazing and explained everything. I trust her very much and can recommend her to friends and family.

I had a wound infection after back surgery which would not heal. Finally I was sent to the wound healing center at Memorial Pembroke to see Dr. Ferland who is a plastic surgeon and a wound specialist. I was so scared but when I met her she explained what needed to be done. she is professional and extremely good at what she does. She ordered special dressings which healed my wound very fast. I highly recommend her.
