“I had such an amazing experience with Dr. Clara Yi. She was extremely helpful and was so kind. All the staff were also very welcoming and helpful. I highly recommend coming to this clinic for any vision needs!”

Sofia S.

“I had a great experience at Thornhill Vision Care. The team at the front desk was super friendly and made check-in easy. During my appointment, I saw Dr. Fan, who was fantastic! She really took the time to investigate something in my eye exam that others had missed. I really appreciated how she linked the exam results to symptoms I felt because it showed she was truly focused on my overall eye health.”

“I’ve been going to see Dr Yi since 2011. She’s always been courteous and professional. Staff is friendly and helpful. I’ve had multiple glasses done at the clinic and everyone is always helpful making sure they fit comfortably.”

Julia K.

“My family and I have been patients of Dr. Clara Yi for many years now, so when she told us that she’s opening a new office and moving to a new location we did not hesitate to follow her there. The new office location is absolutely stunning, but what remained the same is Dr. Clara Yi’s dedication to her patients and the amazing team she built! Ever since I’ve known Dr. Yi, she’s been extremely kind and patient, she’s also very knowledgeable and professional. I’ve never felt rushed during our visits and she’s always taken the time to answer all my questions and explain everything in full detail. Her staff are extremely friendly and helpful, the overall energy in her office is very positive.”
