After being a client of a small neighbourhood clinic and then switching to Dr Kaplan has been such a huge difference. He has gone above and beyond in trying to find contact lenses that work for me. Highly recommended.

Staff are very friendly and I had prompt service. My exam was very thorough and I appreciated how the doctor took their time to explain any eye sight issues. I felt very comfortable with and confident about the servicecI received. Thank you

I had the pleasure of seeing Dr. Phangureh back in December, for an eye exam and contact lens fitting. At that appointment, she noted that she would like me to come back for a dilation, as there may be a small hole in my retina. I visited her yesterday and was so impressed with her attention to detail and knowledge. I very much appreciated that although she had run all the tests/took all the photos, she wanted to refer me to a specialist for a second opinion. She's incredibly professional, and made me feel at ease with the information she provided me. I will definitely be scheduling my future appointments with her.
