Founder


Dr. Kelsey Ford graduated from Pacific University College of Optometry in 2000. In 2003, Dr. Ford moved to Edmonton with her husband Dr. Michael Joljart to start their family. Their son Gibson was born in 2003 and their daughter Sydney joined the family in 2004.

Dr. Ford was seeing patients part-time in the Edmonton area since 2003 but decided to open Lendrum Eyecare in 2012 as a way to better serve the needs of her patients. Answering questions and helping patients understand their exam is a passion of Dr. Ford’s.

Dr. Ford is dedicated to keeping her patient’s eyes healthy and seeing well – this means staying up to date on current medical trends. She has studied under the OMNI eye services in Chattanooga, Tennessee for advanced eye disease. The rotation included Glaucoma, Cataracts, and Macular Degeneration evaluation.

Dr. Ford and her family decided to move to Victoria, BC so it will be easier to connect with her parents who are facing health challenges, and be with her children while they attend school.

She decided to transition the operations and ownership of all three clinics to her dear friend and colleague Dr. Natasha Randhawa. The clinics are in great hands and the support Natasha has shown Dr. Ford’s family through 2021 has been tremendous and speaks to the generous human that she is.

Dr. Natasha Randhawa will be expanding her practice at Lendrum Eyecare and the team of excellent Optometrists at the other clinics will take good care of all your eye care needs. Thank you for all of your continued support for Dr. Ford’s clinics over the years.
