Drs. Brauner and Brauner | Married Optometrists

Doctors Dave and Tammy met... on the first day of orientation at optometry school. No further into orientation than standing in line for ID cards did they first "eye" each other.

Optometry school became not only a medium through which a career was to be established, but it also became the grounds for a growing relationship.

Hours of studying together in the New York City Public library, hours of practicing optometry techniques on each other in the clinic floors, hours of staying up late preparing for quizzes/practical assessments/lab exams/presentations, and several caffeinated beverages later, Dave and Tammy graduated from the College of Optometry in New York together, in front of their beloved families.

Outside of optometry, Dave and Tammy enjoy floor hockey, ice hockey, soccer, frisbee, and have become quite passionate about board games. They look forward to sharing their love for eyes with their patients in a warm, friendly, and caring environment established by two "eye-school" sweethearts.
