About the Doctor: Brittany Nguyen Independent Doctor of Optometry at Site for Sore Eyes

Brittany Nguyen, an Independent Doctor of Optometry. She has been practicing in the Bay Area for over 20 years. Besides private practice, she has regularly volunteered her clinical services at Samaritan House in Redwood City and vision screenings for schools in Alameda and Contra Costa counties. In her spare time she enjoys traveling and spending time with her family.

 

A personal note from Brittany Nguyen:

One aspect of optometry that I appreciate the most is the personal interaction I have with my patients.  I enjoy discovering each patient’s individual visual needs and figuring out the best way to address them. It’s a truly rewarding experience when patients get their new glasses and they can see better.

Eye Exams available by an Independent Doctor of Optometry conveniently located at Site for Sore Eyes. Site for Sore Eyes does not employ the optometrist nor do they provide eye exams.
