FYidoctors Expands Footprint on Vancouver Island

FYidoctors announces that Eye Design Optometry, located on Vancouver Island, BC has recently joined the FYidoctors family.

“Our philosophy has always been that the best patient care we can provide results from a commitment to continually move our practices forward with the latest technology, education and services available to us,” said Dr. Richard Anderson, one of three on-site optometrists at Eye Design Optometry. “In joining FYidoctors, we are now part of a national group of like-minded optometrists who share in that commitment and have a passion for patient education in eye and vision care.”

Eye Design Optometry is the longest established optometry practice in the region with a proud record of serving the entire Cowichan Valley and surrounding areas for over 35 years. Their dedication to improving the quality of patients’ lives through the health of their eyes is evident through the adoption of cutting-edge instrumentation and on-going education. The Duncan location was one of the first practices in the province to convert to electronic medical records.

Dr. Alan Ulsifer, Chairman & CEO of FYidoctors, commented, “I am very proud to welcome Drs. Anderson, Kirsch, and Reavley and their Duncan and Mill Bay teams to FYidoctors. They have built amazing practices from the ground up and experienced growth rarely seen in this industry. As an added bonus, I have the personal pleasure and pride in having two more classmates joining our ever-growing team of nearly 500 doctors.”

This acquisition translates into two new FYidoctors locations on Vancouver Island – one in the City of Duncan and the other in the town of Mill Bay.
