Calgary Vision Therapy

Honestly, I can't put into words how important it was for our son to have had this therapy. A year ago he couldn't read a full sentence or recognize simple words he read in the sentence before. It still makes me upset to think of his lost time. He now reads exceptionally well. His vocabulary has grown with his confidence and he reads on his own. It was challenging sometimes, but we now talk about those challenges and the benefits. We use it as an example of a building block for the future. Thank-you, Calgary Vision Therapy for your understanding, kindness and desire to help. I don't hesitate pass on our experience or recommendation.

I very highly recommend Calgary Vision Therapy. As an older adult, I followed a therapy with them as I was suffering from persistent post-concussion syndrome resulting from 2 concussions: I could no longer read or write or use a computer or a cell phone, had strong photophobia (even grocery shopping was difficult because of artificial light), nausea, big peripheral vision problems, dizziness and many more symptoms, totally unable to work and to have a social life or even do my washing-up without feeling very sick. It took over a year of regular practice and my progress was 2 steps forward, 1 step backward. I won't say it was easy, I'll admit there were tears, but with persistence and thanks to the endless patience, kind support and encouragement of lovely Desaray who did everything she could to adapt to my needs and never gave up on me, I am now able to live an almost normal daily life. Also, Dr Neufeld has shown great expertise in directing my therapy and provided me with anti-blue light glasses that have made a huge difference for me. The therapy is not a walk in the park, but my advice is: trust your therapists, they are wonderful and will do all they can for you, do the exercises no matter how hard they are sometimes. Without Desaray and Dr Neufeld I would still be disabled. I owe them so much and thank them with all my heart.

Vision Therapy was the most life-changing program I have ever experienced! Previously, I have always had difficulty compared to other kids my age with keeping track of lines while reading, but thanks to VT, they were able to pinpoint the exact deficiencies I had in my visual system and specifically target them in my weekly sessions. Without VT, I wouldn't have realized I had these deficiencies and still struggled daily with simple visual tasks. Thanks to VT, my reading/eye-tracking ability has greatly improved and I feel so much more confident in using my visual skills going into my final year of high school.

Calgary Vision therapy was amazing at identifying my son's deficiencies in reading and processing information. He now excels at both reading, writing and math and loves school again. For any parent who is struggling with their child's reading, this is a great starting point for a thorough assessment in identifying the nature of their reading challenges. I highly recommend their services, it has been life changing for my son!

Nyssa recently completed 16 months of Vision Therapy with Allyson, Dr. Neufeld and team. Dr. Neufeld was knowledgeable and kind during assessments. Allyson was integral to our program success with her experience, patience and persistence. Nyssa made great progress throughout the program and is now a fantastic reader with a lot more confidence in learning and in taking on challenges. The work ethic Nyssa gained was unexpected, but an extremely valuable skill to earn. Thank you Calgary Vision Therapy!

From the time my son was a newborn we noticed his eyes seemed to ‘wander’. Every doctor and paediatrician passed it off saying he was reaching his developmental milestones so there was no worry. As he grew his headaches worsened, every day he was in pain. We received a referral to Dr. Neufeld and his team when he was 14. Wow. The difference is amazing. After 6 months of treatment his pain is lower & his happiness is UP! Thank you so much for everything!! Dr. Neufeld and Cathy, you have changed his life ❤️

I took my daughter Sofia for a vision therapy couple of years ago, because I started to noticing one of her eye started wandering" time-to-time. I think it's called a lazy eye. We went to Dr. Neufeld office

Our son struggled for years with various learning difficulties. We tried all kinds of different programs and therapies. It wasn't until Dr. Neufeld diagnosed him with a vision impairment/eye tracking problem that we finally unlocked the key to his problem. The therapy program at Calgary Vision Therapy was outstanding. The therapist my son worked with was so supportive, positive and encouraging. If you are seeing your kid struggle with school work, start here first I highly recommend it.

Dr. Neufeld and staff are amazing. The hard work paid off at the end and now seeing results in my child’s behavior and in his education

I cannot say enough how life changing this therapy is. After having a sever concussion that led to a brain bled. I was unable to read, walk properly or even speak at times. Allyson and the team have done tremendous work to help be function again. I couldn't recommend this enough.
