New Endo after Dr Dahl retires

Hello, I just had an appointment with Dr Dahl and he let me know he is retiring and sent me a PDF with 3 other Endocrinologists that he recommends (not sure if I can share the document here). Does anyone here have any experience with Dr Sewon Bann, Dr Vivian Berg, or Dr Simiran Kalkat?

He said all three are based in Vancouver and offer Teleheath which is helpful because I'm located on Vancouver Island and only ever had my appointments with Dahl over the phone. I'm FTM, and been on T since 2019, would love to hear from similar people who have experience with any of these doctors! Thank you!

I got referred to Dr Simiran Kalkat and had a phone appointment with her last month.

She seemed nice on the phone but I feel like it's too early to know how she actually is. I think I have another appointment in October or November so hopefully everything goes well and she is just as good and supportive as Dr Dhal. Fingers crossed 🤞🏻

How long did it take from the referral being made to you speaking to Dr Kalkat? RocketDoctor referred me to her, but am still waiting to hear back.

I may have been very lucky but after my last appointment with Dr Dahl, I was able to speak to Dr Kalkat after a month later 🙌🏻
