Dr. Tanya Jones-Greenwood grew up on her family farm south of Czar and has been a Prairie Vision patient since childhood. After receiving her Bachelor of Science from the University of Alberta in 2006 and her Optometry Doctorate from Indiana University in 2010, she returned home.
“I love our local communities and the small-town atmosphere; I couldn’t think of a better place to work and start a family.”
In 2012, she began partial ownership of the office and became its sole owner in 2014.
“This is where I grew up. I love caring for the people in my community and want to see us bring big-city technology and skills to our office yet keep the warm and friendly atmosphere.”
Dr. Jones-Greenwood has a special interest in working with children and within the area of vision therapy. She has attended many additional courses, which are listed below. She is a member of the Canadian Optometrists in Vision Therapy and Rehabilitation, the College of Optometrists in Vision Development, and the Optometric Extension Program Foundation.
Outside the office, she enjoys raising her 4 children with her husband and catching up with family and friends. Dr. Jones-Greenwood’s favourite eyewear lines are Paradox, Etnia Barcelona, and Dolce and Gabbana.
