Dr. Beth Gabbard enjoys helping patients see their best and feel comfortable with their eye care. She takes a friendly, approachable style and values the relationships she builds with her patients over time.
She earned her Doctor of Optometry degree from the Illinois College of Optometry after early acceptance from Southeast Missouri State University. Her interest in optometry started while working as an optometric assistant, where she saw firsthand how much a simple visit could improve someone’s day. She found it especially rewarding to see patients leave their appointments smiling, able to see clearly again.
Dr. Gabbard enjoys talking with patients about their eye health and making sure they understand what’s going on and what to expect.
Outside of work, she enjoys reading, word searches, and jigsaw puzzles.
