Optometrist

Dr. Andrea Kozma received a degree in Mechanical Engineering from McMaster University. She worked in manufacturing for a few years prior to deciding that she would rather work in health care. She then completed her Doctor of Optometry degree at the University of Waterloo, and was recognized on the Dean’s Honour List in all her years of study. As part of her clinical training, she worked alongside ophthalmologists with specialties in retina, glaucoma treatment, cataract and refractive surgery.

Upon graduation, she joined the practice as an associate and is thrilled to be serving the visual needs of the Georgetown community. She enjoys all aspects of primary eye care and working with patients of all ages. She particularly appreciates the variety of patients and eye conditions that this diverse practice allows her to see. Aside from the ‘routine’ eye exams, she enjoys the added challenge of emergency referrals from the local family doctors, fitting patients with multifocal contact lenses, treating glaucoma and other eye health conditions.

Passionate about health and fitness; in her spare time, when not traveling, Dr Kozma stays active in a variety of sports such as running, rock climbing, tennis and skiing.

Hello friends, I have retired!

I had 37 years of good fun in Georgetown and loved the gift of meeting so many warm and friendly people! I am very sorry that I didn’t have the time to chat with everyone about my exact plans, and felt guilty over that at times. It was not an easy task. If anyone wants, or needs to contact me, please send an email to my office and I will reply.

I am 66 years old and still feel like I am in good health. My wife died of cancer in 2021 but I have good friends and family and a fun life. I recently moved back to Toronto which is where I grew up as a teenager. I have an active outdoor life and have many ski trips and travel plans in front of me. Lots of interests and activities to explore with an overriding sense that I am a lucky guy. I am also a grandfather now.

I have always tried to employ staff and optometrists who have a heart. I think that is where the office is at today and I hope it continues. Everyone knows their work, and the heart matters.

Ben.
