This BC Family Day weekend will be the first for two local optometrists as an expanded family. Baby Clark was born to Dr Nicole Hewitt and Dr Chris Hewitt last fall.
Last year in addition to expanding their family they expanded their world by purchasing the optometry clinic in Sooke from Dr Brian Joslin and Dr Louise Morin. As they settled into new business ownership they also settled into new parenthood.
Nicole Hewitt had worked at the Sooke clinic for almost four years before she and her husband bought it as their family business. “We like the casual feeling of the Sooke clinic. The clients are friendly. It makes our day enjoyable,” says Nicole.
Over 25 years an optometrist, Dr Morin still works at the clinic serving her long time clientele, but it’s future-forward for the optometry office as Sooke Eyecare under the Hewitts. Many of the same staff have stayed on.
This month Sooke Eyecare is offering a February special. Buy one pair of glasses at the regular price and get the second pair at half price.
Sooke Optometry is at 5-6726 West Coast Road in Sooke, open Monday to Saturday. www.SookeOptometrists.com
