New Independent Optometrist inside Logan Wal-Mart
Apr 2nd, 2007 by Dr. Langford
What is an independent doctor of optometry? It means that I am not an employee of Wal-Mart. I just rent the exam room from them. I receive no compensation from the optical or contact lens sales that they generate. I simply receive income from providing eye exam services.
This also means that the doctor before me was also independent. As such, he maintained his own charts, and he left with many of them, so I won’t always have your old record. But that’s okay since during every exam I can evaluate where you stand with your eye health and vision prescription.
A little about me:
- Graduated from Ricks College (’97) and Idaho State University (’99).
- Obtained Doctor of Optometry degree in 2003 from Pacific University (Forest Grove, OR).
- Worked for two years with the Indian Health Service in Browning, MT.
- Originally from Pocatello, ID but my wife and I have lots of family in Cache Valley, so we moved down in 2005 to be closer.
- I have filled in at various places in Utah and Idaho and opened a private practice in Smithfield, UT before partnering with the North Logan Wal-Mart Vision Center team.
