Dr. JB Lombaard
CCFP, MBChB
Dr. JB Lombaard began his medical career in South Africa, where he gained valuable experience working in a rural hospital setting. In 2013, he relocated to Canada to continue his medical journey. Recognizing the need for specialized care in male reproductive health, Dr. Lombaard expanded his expertise in 2016 by completing specialized No-Scalpel Vasectomy training under Dr. Doug Stein, a leading authority in the field, in Florida.
He collaborated with the Rutherford Medical Clinic in Edmonton to establish and grow a dedicated vasectomy service. Today, he provides care at Ross Medical, in Red Deer, where he runs a specialized minor surgical procedures clinic, and continues his work as a vasectomist at Rutherford Medical Clinic.
Dr. Lombaard further honed his vasectomy reversal skills by training again with Dr. Doug Stein. He also completed microsurgery training at the prestigious Columbia University Microsurgery Lab in New York. His commitment to excellence ensures that he provides the highest level of care in reproductive health and minor surgical procedures.
Dr. Phil Vogel
CCFP, MBChB
I completed my medical training in South Africa. The “pre-kid” wanderlust took me and my wife Liezil, to Lincoln, England, where I worked as a medical officer. We managed to see a lot of Europe during this time, and we developed a keen interest in travel. On returning to South Africa, I worked as a family physician in a small, picturesque town of Parys, and used this time to start my family. Me, Liezil, and our two daughters Rachelle and Mignioné immigrated to Stettler, Canada in 2002, where we still reside.
My interests also include obstetrics, and I have been performing cesarean sections for more than 20 years. Sprouting out of this, I also perform newborn circumcisions. I absolutely love to be part of the care to young families and decided to take the fertility process full circle. I decided to perform training under Dr. Doug Stein, a world renowned vasectomist in my quest to expand medical services in Stettler.
I am striving to provide the most comfortable care “down-there”!
Dr. Bryan Frobb
MD CCFP, BSc. (Hons)
Dr. Frobb was born and raised in Alberta. He completed his MD at the University of Alberta in 2016 and completed his residency training in family medicine in 2018. He trained in the no-scalpel vasectomy technique under several experienced mentor physicians during this time and it has been a regular part of his practice since 2021. In addition to performing vasectomies and minor procedures, Dr. Frobb practices full-scope rural medicine in Drayton Valley, providing care in clinic, ER, and on the ward.
Outside of medicine he has a passion for travel that is eclipsed only by his love for his growing family and his bottle cap collection.
