About Dillen Bosgra

Dr. Dillen Bosgra was inspired to become a Family Physician by his mother who is an emergency room nurse at the hospital in his hometown of Lacombe, Alberta, Canada. 

He earned his Bachelor of Science Degree in Physiology from the University of Alberta, in Alberta, Canada, before attending the Saba University School of Medicine in the Carribean Netherlands, where he received his Doctor of Medicine and Master of Science degree. Dr. Bosgra then completed his residency in Family Medicine at the Stamford Hospital, Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, in Stamford, Connecticut. 

His philosophy of care is centered on using evidence-based medicine where guidelines are applied to provide the highest quality care. With each patient, he hopes to learn their intricacies to best tailor their care to meet the patient’s goals. Incorporating shared decision making, he wants to ensure his patients truly understand that his approach to medicine is to try and help achieve each of their health goals and improve their overall life.

Outside of family medicine, his clinical interests include lifestyle medicine, substance use disorder, sleep, cardiology, and chronic disease management.

To him, working at Southcoast Health means going further than prescribing the right medications. It’s about listening, developing relationships and being an advocate for patients.

Outside of work, Dr. Bosgra stays active cycling, lifting weights, and playing pickleball and golf. He also enjoys spending time with his 2 dogs and wife.

Provider Ratings

Why aren’t there any ratings?

We do not have a rating for this provider for one of the following reasons:

  1. Provider was newly added to our survey process and has not yet received the minimum number (30) of survey returns.  Check back soon for results!
  2. If this provider’s biography page does not specify practicing at Southcoast Physicians Group or a Southcoast hospital site (Charlton Memorial, St. Luke’s or Tobey Hospital), he/she is affiliated with Southcoast Health Network but not employed by Southcoast Physicians Group.  Our affiliates are not included in our survey process.
  3. If this provider’s biography page specifies practicing at Charlton Memorial, St. Luke’s or Tobey Hospital, without reference to an outpatient practice, he/she delivers care in the inpatient hospital setting only; inpatient surveys do not include questions about individual providers.

Southcoast Health physician profiles now feature star ratings.  Below, you’ll find frequently asked questions about our process for calculating the ratings.

Why does Southcoast publish survey ratings online?
Southcoast is dedicated to providing patients and consumers with helpful information about the quality of our patients’ experiences. Star ratings published on our physician biography pages are based on actual responses from patients of that particular physician to patient satisfaction surveys that are distributed and processed by a national patient satisfaction survey vendor.

Who receives the survey?
Our vendor sends surveys via SMS or email to all patients seen in our outpatient physician practices who have a valid smart phone number or email address on file with Southcoast Health. Surveys are sent to patients within a few days of their appointment.

How is the Patient Satisfaction Star Rating Calculated?
Star ratings are calculated using an average of all survey responses to each of three questions: Courtesy and Respect of Staff, Provider Overall Rating, and  Willingness to Recommend Provider’s Office.  The star rating displayed on our physicians’ main biography page represents the average of the three measures for that particular physician.
