Janice M. Sinclair, M.D., is an Ophthalmologist and partner with Northwest Eye in Minnesota, practicing comprehensive ophthalmology, with particular interests in medical ophthalmology, refractive surgery, and oculoplastics, including BOTOX® treatments. She has been a member of Northwest Eye’s respected team of doctors since 2000.

Dr. Sinclair’s personal experiences within ophthalmology, including undergoing LASIK and several strabismus surgeries, gave her an early desire to enter the field of ophthalmology. She truly loves her profession, and in particular, the long-term relationships and connections with patients that can be developed over time.

Dr. Sinclair is originally from Scotland. She lives in Minnetonka with her husband, Bryan Nelson (who practices family medicine with HCMC at their Golden Valley Clinic), and their two young daughters. In her spare time, she enjoys traveling, playing and listening to music, and learning about hedgehogs. She is also a computer (all things Apple) and digital photography enthusiast.

Dr. Sinclair sees patients at our Golden Valley, Maple Grove, and Wayzata Northwest Eye locations.
