Stephanie KernRead about how our optometrist teams feel about the work they do
Dr Nikita Minhas
Optometrist
Every single patient that walked out of the exam really appreciated their entire experience from the moment they stepped into the clinic. In fact, I had many new patients that had come in directly through word of mouth.
Dr Stephanie Kwan
Optometrist
Everyone is here to help, and there is always someone to turn to. I am seeing this first-hand given my position on the Optometry Steering Group committee, where we collaborate as a network of independent doctors. Specsavers has been actively listening to support the direction we want to take eyecare.
Dr Bosung Kim
Optometrist
Specsavers feels like a second home. Access to such great technology in my clinic certainly helps with patient retention and my patients appreciate being able to routinely see their fundus photos and OCT results at every examination. Having practiced in other clinical settings where these technologies were not an option, I often had to refer my patients out for baseline screenings due to in-office equipment limitations.
Dr Michael Luu
Optometrist
As an optometry partner, I’m proud to be able to provide affordable eyecare for all patients. With OCT imaging included in eye exams, my patients no longer have to choose whether this important diagnostic imaging is within their budget.
Dr Maegan Folk
Optometrist
During my time with Specsavers, I have realized how many people have not had an eye exam in years – or ever! The accessibility of my clinic location in a large centre, combined with the quality of care we provide, has encouraged patients to come in, some of whom had previously not been routine with their eyecare. This is a great opportunity for anyone looking to have a fully booked schedule and immerse themselves in a clinic equipped with exciting technology to diagnose and manage ocular disease.
