About
Kyle Sue-Milne, MD, MHM, BSc, GCPain, CCFP(PC)
Dr. Kyle Sue-Milne splits his time between the University of Alberta's Division of Developmental Pediatrics and Division of iHOPE (Immunology, Hematology-Oncology, Palliative Care, Environmental Medicine). Within Developmental Pediatrics, he works in the Pediatric FASD Assessment Service, the Infant and Preschool Assessment Service (IPAS), and the School-Age Neurodevelopmental Assessment Clinic (SNAC). Within iHOPE, he works with the ASSIST (Aid for Symptoms in Serious Illness Support Team) program at the Stollery Children's Hospital. He is also a rural/remote general practitioner.
He completed his rural family medicine residency at Memorial University of Newfoundland. After residency, he completed two fellowships in Developmental Disabilities at Queen's University and the University of British Columbia. He also completed a fellowship in Pediatric Pain Medicine at the University of British Columbia. His next fellowship was in Adult and Pediatric Palliative Care at the University of Ottawa. He also completed graduate studies in Rehabilitation Medicine (Pain Management) at the University of Alberta, and a Master's degree in Health Management through McMaster University's DeGroote School of Business / School of Rehabilitation. Prior to medicine, his interests were in special needs education and cyanometallic chemistry at Simon Fraser University. He has trained and worked in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland & Labrador, NWT, Nunavut, New York, Slovenia, and Turkey. Prior to moving to Edmonton, he founded a primary care clinic for people with Developmental Disabilities and their families, serving all of British Columbia. He intends to bring this model of care to Alberta in the near future.
He remains an Assistant Professor at McMaster University's School of Rehabilitation Science, and is a Clinical Assistant Professor in Family Medicine at the Memorial University of Newfoundland.
He has won numerous awards for his research, leadership, and clinical work. He is widely published, and most recently contributed to the national guidelines for Primary Care of Adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities. However, his most famous and internationally controversial paper was on the topic of "Man Flu" published in the British Medical Journal.
