VISION AND MISSION
VISION
We will enhance vision as the beauty of our sunsets deserves nothing less.
MISSION
To provide the highest quality specialized eye care to the community of Powell River from a professional and personal perspective. Our patients are our neighbours, friends and family.
MY BACKGROUND
A passion for helping others led me down the path of Medicine into a career that allows me to provide my patients with high quality specialist eye care services. Initially from South Africa, my family and I immigrated to Canada in 2016. We reside in the beautiful community of Powell River on the upper Sunshine Coast.
In South Africa, I worked as a partner in a busy and dynamic private eye hospital. I have been a qualified Ophthalmologist since 2011, constantly developing and advancing my medical skills and surgical techniques. I am a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada (RCPSC).
In Powell River, we strive to provide excellence in eye care and surgery while also enjoying the bounty nature has to offer with our young family.
