Dr Clapson is excellent, very knowledgeable, empathic and skilled. I had more difficult cataracts and alot of astigmatism than most and outcome is 20/20 for both eyes. She is simply the best. I highly recommend her.

Dr Clapson has just performed my second cataract surgery and I could not be more pleased. I didn't realize how much of an improvement it would make. Colours are more vivid and I am able to drive again at night. No more "starbursts" from on-coming vehicles. We are very fortunate to have such a skilled doctor in our Valley! Thank you, Dr Clapson.

I found Dr Klapson to be absolutely excellent however the reception and booking system they employ are awful. I missed an appointment that was booked a year ago because they did not send a reminder. Whe4n I contacted the reception I was informed they use a robo-calling service to send out reminders and because I missed the appointment I was being charged a $50 fee. This is awful service and very insulting to charge for a missed appointment because their robo-calling service did not send the reminder. At this point I can not recommend this clinic at all unless they become more flexible, reasonable and warm with patients.

On or about August 18, 2023 I had the privelege of being referred by the Comox Hospital Emergency to see Dr. Kathryn Clapson for urgent care to do with a serious eye injury. I was in to see Dr. Clapson with 24 hours!
I must say that this practice has state of art equipment to properly diagnose any eye injury.
I can't say how much I appreciate your staff and the support you provided with your diagnosis and medical treatment thereafter as I returned back to Port Moody, BC.
It was a difficult go, but I am 110% healed and can see much better today. It was a scary moment for me as this was my first encounter with an injury concerning my eye and I couldn't have been referred to a better Opthalmologist and am blessed for that!
Thank you for being there for me Dr. Clapson and thank you so much for your office to have set up the referral / followup, which went very well now that I am 100% Cured!
Sending many blessings to you and your staff!

To say I am disappointed with the results of my cataract surgery would be an understatement. After $2000 out of pocket I have horrible vision and driving at night is downright dangerous. To be told "sometimes we just don't get it right" and "your age group is the most difficult to please", and then told it was all she could do and I would just have to live with corrective lenses and "make due" with driving at night was unacceptable. So, schedule a consult with Dr Shaver, "I would never have put those lenses in", I felt sick to my stomach. "Nothing can be done now, sorry". I should have done my due diligence and got 2 opinions in the first place but thought (and heard) that these surgeries were routine and you would "love" your new eyes. Not in my case.........
