He enjoys all aspects of general dentistry, including restorative, cosmetic and oral surgery. When Owen’s not exploring in patients’ mouths, you can find him hiking beautiful lower Vancouver island, watching Toronto Raptors’ games, and trying out spicy salmon rolls at EVERY sushi restaurant that is registered on Google Map! Yum!
Dr. Son is committed to treating his patients with high quality care and empathy. He wants to thank you for choosing our clinic and looks forward to meeting you.
Meet Dr. Tara Mehta
Dr. Tara Mehta is a West Coast native, hailing from the Bay Area, California. She spent the last 3 years living and working in the beautiful Comox Valley but clearly missed the big city life!
Dr. Mehta’s interest in healthcare started in 2012 with the completion of her Bachelor of Science degree in Cognitive Neuroscience at McGill University. She went on to obtain a Doctor of Dental Medicine at the University of Sydney, where she learned to appreciate dentistry’s unique integration of medicine, patient care, and artistry.
Dr. Mehta understands that dental treatment can seem complicated and daunting; her main goal is to ensure that each visit to the dentist is comfortable and informative, so patients can always make educated decisions about their health.
Come in for a visit with Dr. Mehta, and while she’s checking out your mouth, maybe she’ll tell you about the time she was kidnapped by a runaway Icelandic horse!

Meet Dr. Frank Van Gyn
Dr. Frank Van Gyn has been practicing dentistry for 46 years and still enjoys working more than a few days a week at one of his 4 current practices. Growing up in Pigeon Lake, Alberta, Dr. Van Gyn attended the University of Alberta, graduating in 1976. He moved to Victoria BC in 1978 and by 1979 he had opened his first practice in Fairfield Plaza. Since then he has been a mainstay in the community, known for his cowboy ways, always having a dog by his side, and his big laugh.
Family members and friends often pop into the office to see if they can steal him away for a quick coffee in the breakroom. Dr. Van Gyn is very community involved and some of his patients have been with him for over 40 years. He still welcomes new patients and would love to see you.
