Add your review on GoogleDr.Sitler and her team are absolutely fantastic at what they do. Amazing people , and such wonderful patient care !
Professional, knowledgeable and compassionate. My family felt very comfortable with Dr. Sitler and she patiently and kindly talked us through a difficult situation. Kathleen in reception is also very kind and wonderful to deal with on the phone. Could not have been a better experience.
First time seeing Dr.Sitler for my 8 year old son. She was AMAZING. She was warm and comforting and made instant rapport with my son who is on the spectrum and she shared that her son is as well. Having someone treating your child that can actually relate is such a reassuring thing. Wearing glasses myself I’ve seen my fair share of eye doctors in my life and I could tell right away how thorough she was in her exam. The office itself was also very nice and clean, well maintained with good equipment. Highly recommend Dr.Sitler!

A Functional Vision Exam is typically longer then a routine eye exam, and although ocular health and visual acuity are an important part of the exam, additional extensive testing into how the eyes work together and how the brain processes visual information are also done. For a more thorough description please see our “What is Vision Therapy” page!
Yup! We do still offer comprehensive routine eye exams, emergency eye care and contact lens assessments as well.
You can fax (236) 425-4496) or email us (info@kamloopsvisiontherapy.ca) the patient’s contact information and the relevant information regarding their particular diagnosis or concern. We can then contact the patient to get everything set up!
Nope! If you feel you or your child could benefit, a referral is not necessary. However, we may request information from other professionals you have seen to help us better understand the issues at hand.
Absolutely! Although the initial evaluation, the progress checks and the follow-up appointments need to be done in-person, therapy sessions can be done remotely online. However, it is the initial evaluation that will help us determine if this is the right option for you or your child.
The safety of our patients and staff is our priority. Our policies to help keep everyone safe include: mandatory masks, staying home when sick, maintaining social distancing whenever possible, reducing care takers and additional personnel who accompany the patient, and frequent hand washing and cleaning. Please do not come to your appointment if you are experiencing any signs of illness or if you have travelled internationally within the last two weeks.
The friendly and professional staff at Kamloops Vision Therapy provided an extensive evaluation. This was followed by weekly sessions and evaluations that had us see improvements that we could not have accomplished on our own. This program does not happen though without commitment at home by both the guardians and patient. The reward for the time and effort was well worth the sacrifices. Our son is now able to track words on pages and his reading has taken off.
Dr. Sitler is one of the nicest human beings you will ever meet! She genuinely cares about her patients and enjoys celebrating successes and milestones. She is a caring professional who is extremely knowledgeable in her field. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her for children and adults alike! I can’t say enough about what she has done for me, both in my professional career and personal life. I feel like I have my life back and am able to do lots of things I couldn’t do for about the first two years of my accident. Through the weekly homework I was able to improve my quality of life and am so grateful and thankful I was able to have her on my care team.
… kind and caring staff, personable client centred approach. The ability to engage and keep the focus a 7-year old boy was amazing. Staff responded to inquiries quickly and efficiently. Dr. Sitler’s knowledge, guidance, care and concern were amazing, she really cares about her clients and the outcomes with their vision. The openness and honesty about progress and what the next steps are. Appreciated the tips and advice in using vision therapy while doing everyday activities.
I can accomplish so much more in a day. Far less mental fog. I am riding a bike three times a week, with rides ever increasing in lengths! I now have a number of tips, tricks, and tools to use to control and/or reduce my symptoms & remain more active throughout my day.
Dr. Sitler and her staff are very kind, compassionate, and caring. Dr. Sitler is a very important part of my journey to achieving the recovery that we have been able to achieve. She truly cares about the people who are fortunate to have her help and guidance. Dr. Sitler has given me my life back. I truly mean this. When I first went to see Dr. Sitler my feeling of self worth was very low. I can not thank Dr. Sitler enough
I have gotten better at sports, school and life. I am not stumbling or tripping over the ball (during soccer). My field of vision has gotten bigger. It helps me see people around me when I’m playing sports.
I was constantly falling down & breaking bones, and getting angry & frustrated in overwhelming situations. I have felt very strong changes in many areas, but most dramatically not falling down, stumbling and/or smashing into objects and breaking bones! My balance has greatly improved! Others have noticed I am less angry, more able to focus, and be aware… I am very thankful to Dr. Sitler, her staff and her program. She worked with me and on my needs. Challenging, teaching, and encouraging me.
I loved the hands-on individual program that was designed to help me as a nurse working nightshifts when eye fatigue was at its worst. The team utilized their training around my job specific tasks. I still use the exercises and techniques from vision therapy to help when my eyes are tired or strained. For me the combination of vision therapy and surgery have improved my quality of life.
