Community Service...

Because our doctors live and work where we practice, we are committed to community service. Our doctors frequently volunteer their time to benefit the youth in our area.

In the past, our doctors have been guest speakers at local schools and have sponsored local youth activities. Our doctors also serve as mentors for local students that are interested in pursuing optometry as a career. If you would like more information or if you would like one of our doctors to speak to your group or school, contact our office at 330-725-4680.
