Erica

Patient Care Coordinator for Vision Therapy and Specialty Contact Lenses / Optician

While Erica's passion is working one-on-one with patients and while you will find her in all areas of the practice, her main focus is coordinating the specialties of the practice.  This involves educating patients on GVSS and vision therapy along with coordinating all testing, scheduling and financial needs.  Her favorite part of working at PFE is the small office atmosphere, which allows her to move around the office with the patients that need her the most.
