Community Involvement
We take pride in serving our patients and the community. We sponsor community educational seminars and support groups. The Eye Center participates in Health Fairs and regularly lectures to service clubs, senior centers, and health care facilities. Our physicians offer continuing education credits to our local physicians, nurses, and technical health care providers. We often hold contests and give away such things as free designer sunglasses and even LASIK surgery. We also offer educational seminars here at our office several times per year. If you would like to receive our newsletter via e-mail, or perhaps would like to have one of our doctors speak at an engagement for your club or organization, please contact Jennifer Reale, Marketing Director.
