I've been seeing Dr. Mckenzie for a number of years now and finally saw him again in his new clinic in Kingsway mall after I thought he had moved away to the south side of Edmonton. Love the new clinic look, seems very modern and very professional, but I don't understand the name Stonewire? The staff though were fabulous and got me in quickly because I was having a vision problem. Thanks for the fast service and great treatment.

Fast paced exam, doesn't seem to care even though he pretends too. Talks to me like I'm a child. Staff members are immature, talk about people and swear while sitting at the front desk. Staff members are the worst part of this experience.

Ironically, this doctor seems to care more about how he looks(aesthetically) rather than about how others can see. I perceived him to be arrogant, cold and careless... not completely unskilled, just really detached. You get the sense that he'd rather be tanning on a beach in Florida as opposed to helping you with your eyesight. He gave me a prescription that left me feeling 5 inches taller every time I put on my glasses. It was much too strong. Second time around, he quickly said "Yeah, we'll change this." and sent me on my way with a prescription that has left my eyes even worse off. I certainly wouldn't recommend this optometrist to anyone I know... So it's off to another physician for me. I'll be sure to pick one who is not only qualified, but also takes his job seriously, as every M.D. should.

He was very cold and extremely rude. I was very nervous about the puff of air for the glacoma test and he treated me like I was a petulant child that he had no time for. When he gave me my very mild prescription for glasses, he made me feel like total crap for waiting so long to have my eyes checked and get glasses, saying I was a danger on the road, etc. My glasses are -0.5, and I have always passed the eye exam at the vehicle registry offices. I will never go back to see him again.

Very helpful, knowledgeable,conscientious, doctor. Would recommend to anyone. He picked up on a problem with my eyes and quickly referred me to a specialist.

Biography

Dr. Ross McKenzie initially obtained his B.Sc degree from the University of Saskatchewan, majoring in Human Anatomy and minoring in mathematics. He then went on to graduate from Pacific University College of Optometry with distinction and was a member of Beta Sigma Kappa Honour Society for academic excellence. He has an extensive clinical background focused on medical eye care in cataracts, diabetes and emergency eye care. In addition, he's had the privilege of working alongside several local cataract and laser eye surgeons. Through this, he's gained extensive knowledge of these common eye procedures, including their criteria, surgical concerns and complications, and post-operative care, which he has brought to his private practice. This expertise has also led to numerous cross-disciplinary speaking engagements on topics such as refining eyeglass prescriptions, contact lens infections, corneal abrasions, retinal detachments and floaters. In addition to medical eye care, Dr. Ross McKenzie also enjoys seeing kids. Being able to help children see and succeed at school while helping to slow down the progression of nearsighted using the latest myopia management techniques has been a recent passion and an area where he continues to study and gain knowledge. In his free time, Dr. Ross McKenzie can be found at one of the local parks with his own little kids, swimming, skiing, playing hockey or participating in the occasional running race or triathlon.
