“As a new immigrant and physician with personal and corporate tax responsibilities, I needed expert assistance navigating the Canadian Tax system. Welch LLP was recommended to me by several other physician colleagues, and I was impressed by my accountant’s understanding of my needs and ability to help me understand my obligations. I have been a happy client for 4 years and feel secure managing my accounting needs with respect to their short- and long-term implications.”

“I am a busy physician with a young family. In addition to looking for a comprehensive solution, I was also looking for a firm that could cover all my service needs. I really appreciated the ability of the Welch team to provide a full-service package for a family and medical corporation at a stable monthly fee. Welch LLP was highly referred to me by other doctors. They have genuine interest in their clients; my first personal meeting as a physician starting out with the Welch Team was already tailored to my needs. The team’s significant experience in the niche ascertained their ability to work with medical corporations and services.”
