"Dr. McConville has helped me through my own insecurities and has guided me to see God in the details. 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."

"Melissa’s beautiful home, is truly a place of rest and respite. Her heart for ministry is evident in every detail, creating a space that is simple, practical, and warmly inviting.

Here, you’ll find a deep sense of peace woven into the rural atmosphere, along with opportunities for reflection and renewal. You will also enjoy a short or longer hike in the mesmerizing coastal forest just steps from her door.

If you’re seeking a place to rest and be cared for, be refueled and recharged as you go deeper in the Word of God with Melissa (for life and ministry) - this is an opportunity you do not want to pass up."

Shayla Achkar, MD 

Family Physician | Quebec, Canada

"Through this course and the mentorship of Dr. Melissa McConville, I was able to grow in my personal walk with the Lord and learn practical, biblical tools to share my faith with patients and colleagues in a respectful way to both people, law and ethics. This course has significantly shaped me—not only as a Christian, but also as a Christian physician. I pray that many others will be equipped and encouraged in the same way.

Ashley Pirisino, MD

Family Physician | Texas, USA

"Dr. McConville 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.

If you are struggling with knowing that you’re meant to provide more and being led to share the Good News, but you’re not sure how…I highly recommend working with Dr. McConville."

David Sauder, MD

Orthopaedic Surgeon | Saskatchewan, Canada

"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.

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."

Tanaka Oyefodunrin

Medical Student | Canada

"This training taught me that the most important thing is to be intentional about implementing spiritual disciplines that help you hear the voice of God in every encounter. Today, I’m excited to be a Christian in medicine and feel equipped with the tools I need—both legal knowledge and practical guidelines—to incorporate my faith into practice. If you're struggling with similar challenges, I highly recommend working with Dr. McConville."

Timothy Ehmann, MD 

Consultant Psychiatrist | Alberta, Canada

"Since training with Dr. McConville, I have grown in confidence in my ability to integrate faith and practice, such that I am experiencing more joy and excitement in my daily clinical work than ever before. With the skills and knowledge I now possess about how to ask about some of a patient's most closely held beliefs, I find myself now inquiring about this area of my patients lives much more intentionally, and into much more depth. This has opened up the door for opportunities to arise in which I might share the good news of God's gift to us in his son Jesus Christ in a way that feels authentic and natural.  My only regret in having taken the time to do this training with Dr. McConville is not having done it earlier in my career."

Rachelle

Worship Singer | British Columbia, Canada

"I had such a meaningful and restorative experience at this retreat.

This place offered something deeper. I experienced rest for my body and healing in my mind and spirit. The atmosphere was calm, peaceful, and truly supportive, and I appreciated the personal spiritual care that was offered during my stay. Surrounded by beautiful scenery, it created the perfect space to rest, reflect, and reconnect.

I genuinely felt the presence of the Holy Spirit during my time here and would recommend this retreat to anyone seeking whole-person renewal and peace."

Marta Potts, MD

Family Physician | British Columbia, Canada

"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!"

Ange-Cedric N'zi 

Dental Student | Canada

"Through this training I’ve become more grounded in my identity in Christ. I now recognize my role not only as a clinician but also as a vessel of healing in a broader, spiritual sense. This training with “Calling Kingdom Doctors” has helped me see that dentistry is a ministry — a way to serve others and glorify God through both competence and compassion."
