Staff Profile
Dr. ZakhemPhysician
“When I was young, my father had complex comorbidities. I learned from a young age the importance of health advocacy, support, compassion and empathy. It inspired me to get into health care so I could help others navigate the system.
Since becoming a family doctor, I’ve been able to use my skills to help patients; it’s so important having somebody in your corner.
The people here are so overwhelmingly kind and accommodating – they’re a pleasure to care for.
I work with an excellent team of people who truly understand the importance of the patient experience.”
“This letter is written to express my utmost appreciation and heartfelt thanks to the Emergency Team at KDH. Last Tuesday morning I received a phone call from my teenage son Markus’s school informing me that he had inadvertently eaten a cookie containing peanuts. As he has a life-threatening peanut allergy, this was an immediate cause for concern. Markus was taken to the ER and immediately given a dose of norepinephrine, followed by an infusion after he had a second reaction. Markus was transferred to CHEO by ambulance later in the afternoon. As you can imagine, this was an incredibly impactful experience for Markus and my entire family. We have such respect for the wonderful work of the Emergency Team at KDH, to whom Markus owes his life. Everyone was caring, kind and professional. Special thanks go to Dr. Pelletier, Dr. Jones, and nurses Catherine, Heather, and Melissa."
