Dr. Dylan Van Der Burg
Dr. Van Der Burg grew up in a small town called Bainsville about 2 hours south of Ottawa. His family owned a farm which transitioned from dairy to poultry to agriculture throughout his childhood. He completed his undergraduate studies in the Health Sciences program at McMaster University and obtained his Optometry Degree from University of Waterloo, graduating on the Dean’s Honour List. In his fourth year of optometry school, he completed his ocular disease rotation in Miami, Florida where he gained experience in the management and treatment of glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration. Outside of the clinic, Dr. Van Der Burg spends his time working out at the gym, watching football on Sundays, and spending time with friends and family. He is excited to be joining KOC and providing eye care to the Kanata and the Greater Ottawa regions.
