Meet Dr. Avron Heyman
Emergency Department Physician
Together with Health PEI and the Department of Health and Wellness, we’re pleased to announce the recruitment of Dr. Avron Heyman.
Dr. Heyman is from Johannesburg, Africa, and recently moved with his family to PEI. He is an Emergency Department physician at Western Hospital. His recruitment was largely made possible through the efforts of a colleague already living and working on PEI.
Dr. Heyman recently took a few minutes to answer some questions so you could get to know him better.

Get to know Dr. Avron Heyman
What is one “fun fact” about you?
I have a fetish for fancy decorated socks (LOL). It is my only fashion statement. When I feel a bit overwhelmed, I wear my socks with a lemon pattern and remind my patients that when life gives you lemons…make lemonade
Do you have any questions for Islanders?
● How do I earn my “stripes” and become an Islander?
● Which ice hockey team do I support?
● Best brand of peanut butter on the Island?
● What are snow-chains?
● What local eateries in Summerside and surrounding areas do you recommend?
● Where do I get the best ice cream?
