Dr. van Aardt is passionate about helping people look and feel their best.
Board certified in Family Medicine and licensed by the Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Ontario, and South Africa. Dr. van Aardt is a recognized expert in the field of aesthetic medicine. He recently completed a term as President of the Canadian Association of Aesthetic Medicine (CAAM), where he has served on the board of directors since 2007.
“My practice is firstly medical, so ethical standards are extremely important and treatments must always be in the patient’s best interests. It’s all about education, how medical aesthetic procedures work, what to expect, the safety, the risks, and what the path will be going forward. The field I work in is not a quick fix, it works with the body to achieve good results — it’s a slow and steady process of reversal of symptoms by treating the cause.”
