Dr McGillivray is the kind of ophthalmologist who makes you feel like your eyeballs just got a backstage pass to clarity. I came in with vision that felt like I was watching life through a foggy fish tank, and he sorted me out with the kind of calm precision that makes you wonder if he’s secretly part wizard. Super down-to-earth, explains everything like you’re chatting over coffee, and genuinely cares. Burlington’s got a gem. My sight’s so sharp now, I’m spotting freckles I didn’t know I had.
