Meet the Team

We wanted to build a practice that did not centre on the name of the eye surgeon, but rather on the strong network of eyecare professionals who we can bring to our patients. Patients in Central Alberta deserve to receive the highest quality of care and we want to continue fostering this development for the next 100 years, and for the future generations to come.
