Meet The Eye Doctor At Buena Vista Eyecare Optometry
Our eye doctor takes the time to explain the results of your eye exam, describe your options and listen to your eye care needs. Because maintaining good eye health is an ongoing partnership, we encourage you to ask questions and share your health information, which could be vital to monitoring, diagnosing, and treating potential vision problems.
“I have a passion for teaching – whether teaching optometry students at UC Berkeley, or when teaching my patients in the exam room about their eye condition. When my patients understand what’s going on with their eyes, together we can achieve a lifetime of excellent vision.”
