Dr. Ben Wiese

Family Physician with a focus in Skin Cancer and Skincare


Based in Kelowna, Dr. Ben Wiese is a dedicated primary care skin cancer physician.

Dr. Wiese studied in South Africa at the University of Pretoria, where he received his Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery.

In 2010, Dr. Wiese and his wife, Dr. Lize Wiese, decided to move from South Africa and open up a family practice in Kelowna.

His interest in the field of skin health and aesthetics led him to join a busy aesthetic practice in 2013. He worked there part-time for a few years and then decided to leave family medicine and open his own skincare clinic in 2018.

Dr. Wiese has been trained extensively by Allergan to perform cosmetic injectables. He also attended training sessions in Phoenix, Arizona.

In 2021, Dr. Ben achieved his Master’s degree in skin cancer from the University of Queensland in Australia.

As a physician with a particular interest in skin health, Dr. Wiese is a firm believer that “prevention is better than cure.” Having worked as a family physician for over a decade, Dr. Wiese’s approach is more proactive than reactive. Ultimately, Dr. Wiese hopes to contribute to the field of skin health and aesthetics through research, teaching, and being a strong advocate for prevention.

Aside from their careers, both Dr. Wiese and his wife love hiking, biking, jogging, and snow skiing. Together, they enjoy travelling and simply spending time with good friends. Their twin boys and 2 cats provide abundant joy, love and laughter.

Dr. Lize Wiese

Family Physician with a focus in Skin Cancer and Skincare


Dr. Lize Wiese is a primary care skin cancer physician. She moved with her husband, Dr Ben Wiese, from South Africa in 2010 to start a family practice in Kelowna. She obtained a Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery in South Africa at the University of Pretoria.

Her passion for skin care and aesthetics led her to a part-time position at an aesthetics practice in 2013. She worked there for a few years and eventually co-founded Kelowna Skin Cancer Clinic in 2018.

She underwent intensive training by Allergan (the makers of Botox) regarding safe injection techniques for cosmetic injectables. She also attended training sessions in Phoenix, Arizona.

Dr Wiese is also passionate about the education side of her job. Many people aren’t very knowledgeable when it comes to protecting their skin from damage and premature aging. They’re often led to believe myths about tanning and sun protection. Dr. Lize takes pride in being a qualified yet approachable resource for her patients.

Dr. Lize strongly believes that healthy skin equals beautiful skin.

Today Dr. Lize Wiese lives and works in Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada with her husband, Dr. Ben Wiese, and their two children.
