DR. ELYSA KLIMAN

Dr. Kliman studied chemistry at Vassar College before earning a dental degree at the University of Southern California in 2012. Her passion for integrative medicine led her to continue her education as a Visiting Research Scholar at Stanford University in 2018. Originally from Toronto, she got hooked on the west coast lifestyle and feels very grateful to now call Bowen Island her home.

Outside of the office you can find Dr. Kliman hanging out with her family and friends, dancing, or frolicking in the pacific.

DR. PETER KEARNEY

Dr. Kearney grew up in West Van attending Westcot and Sentinel before going to UBC for biochemistry. He graduated with a DDS from the University of Toronto in 1979 and came back to Vancouver.

Dr. Kearney and Dr. Katrin Turu started the West Van Dental Group together in 1983 . They were joined by Dr. Clive Jones and Dr. Mark Spurr. After many great years at WVDG he started Howe Sound Dental Group, where he began working with Dr. Elysa Kliman. Now, after two successful practices on the mainland, Dr. Kearney is excited to be part of the creation of Bowen Island Dental.

As a ‘life long learner’, Dr. Kearney is a ‘dental nerd’ who wants the best for his patients.

Dr. Turu and Dr. Kearney have two adult children and in their spare time enjoy skiing, hiking and kayaking together. Dr. Kearney still plays hockey and tennis.

DR. CLIVE JONES

Dr. Jones was co-owner of West Van Dental Group prior to his first retirement. The practice was home to a large number of Bowen Islanders who made the trek to West Vancouver to obtain dental care. As an advocate for Bowen Island, Dr. Jones believes having a full time dental practice on-island is essential for the community as it grows and changes. Therefore, he has come out of retirement to support the launch of this new practice.
