Dr. McCann earned his two Bachelors of Science degrees (both with honours) at Western University in London, Ontario, before going on to earn his Bachelor of Vision Science, accelerated MBA, and Doctor of Optometry degrees at the Nova Southeastern University (NSU) of Optometry in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
During his time at NSU, Dr. McCann was president of the student government and was awarded the Student of the Year award. He also maintained full honour roll status and earned the Dan & Hoffman Award for clinical excellence as well as an award recognizing his skill in contact lens management.
While in Florida, Dr. McCann completed several clinical internships at Eyes Centers of South Florida in Miami and Aker Kasten Eye Center in Boca Raton. He also completed clinical rotations that focused on contact lenses, primary care, and pediatric optometry at NSU.
Dr. McCann owns five practices in and around London, and when he isn’t seeing patients, he works as a professional consultant for Johnson & Johnson and lectures on contact lenses and practice management across Canada. He also lectures on ocular disease at continuing education conferences and teaches clinical externs from the University of Waterloo School of Optometry and Vision Science during their final year of study. For the 2016/2017 year, Dr. McCann also served on the board of directors for the Ontario Association of Optometrists.
While he misses the sunny Florida weather, Dr. McCann is pleased to be practicing in his hometown of London, Ontario.
