Why independent?
Being independent allows us to provide a personalised service, with high quality products and a focus on maintaining the community reputation we are proud of. We aren't bound by corporate sales targets or foreign supply chains.
Scott Fitzpatrick B APP SCI (Optometry), GRAD CERT OCULAR THERAPEUTICS
I was inspired to continue the optometry tradition of parents, Geoff and Debbie Fitzpatrick. I knew I wanted to deliver an important health service in my community and was attracted to the challenge of running my own business. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my young family, sport and the great outdoors.
Kodie Van Dyk B APP SCI (Optometry) Hons
I was interested in pursuing a career in rural health, and read an article about optometry being a rewarding career, which I've found to be absolutely true. I've been practising for over 10 years, and when I'm outside the practice, I help look after the family farm.
