I really appreciated how she explained to us why my son has a seemingly dim red light reflex when he goes to his primary care doctor. We’ve seen 2 other doctors for this and no one explained it to us so we’ve been worrying all these years. Thankful we now have some answers and can rest assured we don’t need to come back immediately next year.

Very thorough eye exam. I was very impressed with her professionalism and approachability. I felt she genuinely cared about my eye challenges.
I also want to mention Quinn and Taylor were amazing at their jobs.
Doctor visits can often feel overwhelming for children, and eye exams with new equipment and bright lights can be intimidating. I love using play to help kids feel comfortable and bring joy to clinic visits. My relationships with my patients and families are so rewarding, and it is an honor to provide care that will impact vision for the rest of a patient's life. Having grown up in the Twin Cities, it is so special to be at SPEC and provide this care in a community that means so much to me.
I fell in love with ophthalmology when I volunteered with a free clinic that provided vision services. I met multiple patients who were legally blind from treatable eye conditions, and I was inspired by the life-changing results of medical and surgical treatment of eye disease.
