Bio to come. I know me but I always find it hard to write about me and thus I am going to give this task to my awesome wife.

The Retina Recovery Team
Tracy and I are so appreciative of the great team of people that have joined us to help you
throughout your facedown recovery journey. We are also thankful to several businesses that allow us to do what we do best, coach and encourage you in your recovery.
Tracy
I’m Tracy, and I was caregiver, wife, parent, renovator, cook, landscaper and much, much more during Steve’s recovery from a detached retina. I understand what it is like to feel shocked and overwhelmed when your life suddenly upends itself and you suddenly become caregiver with less than 24 hours notice. It’s not easy.
Now I have the privilege of being behind the scenes doing some of the more mundane but necessary tasks that keep this business going. It brings me no greater joy than to see Steve sharing his experience and encouraging others through the challenging days of recovery from retinal surgery. Along with Steve, I wish you a successful and hope-filled recovery!
Isaac
I studied Political Science and Peace Studies at McMaster University, and am proud to call Hamilton my home. When I am not watching sports or movies, I am probably spending time with my friends talking about them.
Favourite Hobbies: Reading, writing, and finding time to play every sport under the sun.
Favourite Destination: I've spent time in four different Southeast Asian countries, and feel like I've barely scratched the surface of places to see and things to do.

Stephanie R.
I am Stephanie, a stay at home Mom who spends my time getting snacks for my 4 small kids. When I’m not feeding kids, folding laundry or washing dishes, you will probably find me binge watching Disney movies with a Diet Coke.

Local Businesses
-
Jay's Auto Service
Resource: Vehicle MaintenanceKeeping our vehicles running smoothly so we can make timely deliveries is oh so important. Dave and his team has baled me out on more occasions than one (i.e. cracked rad, flat tire etc.). We're thankful we have a local mechanic that we can trust. -
Foster Auto Group
Resource: Vehicle PurchasesI hate shopping for vehicles. Whether for business or personal use, Mike Foster to the rescue. Disclosure: Mike is my neighbour. As a business, we have now purchased 3 Toyota Sienna's from him. We're grateful that we can focus on our business and leave others to do what they do best. -
Sydian Group
Resource: Cellphone
I'm so appreciative of the help I have received from Chris and his team. Sydian has a contract with Rogers that allows them to pass on their savings to small businesses like us. When I have an issue or question it is so nice be able to call and connect with someone I know. Sydian knows our business needs, isn't pushy. They give us the straight goods so we can focus on what we do best, serving you! -
FBC
Resources: Taxes, Tax Audits, Travel Audits
I’ve been with FBC for 3 plus years now. The time that they have saved me and the stress they have reduced for me is a welcome change from doing my tax filing and planning on my own. I run an incorporated business as well as a sole proprietorship.I have several contact points within FBC and have yet to be disappointed. These include a) a rep specifically assigned to me ... I find it so beneficial to be able to call when I have a simple question and of course a more complicated one … b) a tax specialist who comes to my home twice a year to prepare our personal tax returns as well as my corporation tax return, c) an HST Specialist who has worked tirelessly with the CRA on our behalf helping communicate our business uniqueness in renting eye surgery recovery rental equipment, and finally d) an audit specialist who addressed a CRA travel audit on our behalf something that each of us who run our own businesses should expect.Where would I be without FBC? Probably on the phone with the CRA. I truly know FBC has my back. They have allowed me to focus on building my business and serving others. Thank you FBC for all you do! -
Cellphone Fox
Resource: Cellphone/iPad Battery Replacements
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED - This review is long overdue. I'm so appreciative of knowing I can support a local business who cares about you and treats you fairly. I took two iPhone's in for servicing, the first for a battery which includes a 6 month warranty and the second with a power/display issue. Re: the battery replacement, I scheduled an appointment and within an hour I had my work phone back. Perfect! Re: the power/display issue, after a diagnosis it was determined to be water damaged. I feel I was treated more than fair for the time invested in troubleshooting. Thank you so much for your help. I will be returning with no hesitation.
