"Before working with Dr. McConville I was struggling with how to incorporate my faith and the outward expression of my faith in my medical practice. She has helped provide me with a wonderful fellowship but also a structured framework for allowing the Holy Spirit to work through me, even in the examining room.

Today I am incorporating a spiritual history, praying, laying hands and being guided by the Lord with my patients. I feel confident yet sensitive to the guardrails preexisting in the world of medicine.

If you are struggling with knowing that you’re meant to provide more and being led to share the Good News of how God has moved in your life to your patients but you’re not sure how…I highly recommend working with Dr McConville."

"The coaching and consulting with Dr. McConville has been very productive. The course was spiritually encouraging and I really appreciate how Dr. McConville takes her direction from God, following the leading and guiding of the Holy Spirit.

Dr. McConville’s background in Complementary and Alternative Modalities was super helpful and the course gave me good direction regarding my medical licensing authority.

One unexpected thing that has come out of this training, on top of me now praying for my patients, is my spiritual influence on others, such as my family, my adult children, and other doctors and trainees. It expanded a lot more than I expected."

"Participating in “Calling Kingdom Doctors'' with Dr. McConville has been a true blessing. She challenged, equipped and encouraged me to accomplish His healing by incorporating the Truth of Christ regularly into everyday clinical interactions with patients.

The training brought joy and gratitude in a busy outpatient setting and was a wonderful reminder of why I was drawn to medicine in the first place! “Calling Kingdom Doctors” is Scripture-based, Spirit-led, heart-felt and God-honouring.

Be prepared to be stretched out of your comfort zone, grow in courage and faith and be in awe of the workings of God in your practice and heart!"

"Before working with Dr McConville I was struggling to find my purpose in medicine. I thought it was impossible to align my religious values with caring for my patients. She has helped me through my own insecurities and has guided me to see God in the details and incorporate prayer in caring for my patients. Today I am a better Christian, doctor, mother and wife. I feel a new found freedom in medicine that I have never experienced before. If you are feeling burnt out and struggling with your purpose and future in medicine, I highly recommend working with Dr McConville."
