Liezl Sullivan MD
Post Grad Dip (Aes Med.), MBChB, DRCOG, MRCGP, JCPTGP, CCFP
Medical Director, Willow Medical Aesthetics
I qualified as a medical doctor in 1994. I worked in various specialities before completing my qualifications as a Family Physician in 2002 in the UK.
Dr Sullivan has been practicing Aesthetic Medicine since 2005
During my training I developed an interest in skin procedures and over the course of time, broadened that interest to Medical Aesthetics & Women’s Wellness Medicine.
As a qualified family physician, I now focus on Women’s Wellness and have subsequently completed:
- General Practice postgraduate diploma in Obstetrics and Gynaecology in 1999
- Postgraduate diploma in Aesthetic Medicine in 2011
- General Practice postgraduate diploma in Dermatology in 2021
I provide a General Practice consultancy service in Dermatology and want to be clear that I am not a FRCP Dermatologist.
I am a member of the College of Family Physicians in Canada and Royal College of General Practitioners in the UK and in good standing with the College of Physicians and Surgeons of BC and General Medical Council in the UK.
Our clinic in Courtenay opened in April 2018 and the Campbell River clinic opened in July 2018.
