Why did you choose to create Weaver Eye Associates?

I created Weaver Eye Associates in July of 1978. I started the practice because I wanted my own practice. I wanted a practice dedicated to patient care.

Why is Weaver Eye Associates such a leader in the eye care industry?

Weaver Eye Associates is a leader in the eye care industry because we are constantly striving for better ways to serve our patients. This includes investments in our facilities, our equipment, our doctors, our staff and our education.

How does Weaver Eye Associates demonstrate exceptional patient care?

Weaver Eye Associates demonstrates exceptional patient care every day with every patient. We strive to treat each and every patient as if they were our only patient, as if they were our own family. I believe this is the only way to treat patients.

What made you decide to become an optometrist?

When I graduated from college, I began my career teaching in Arlington, Virginia. After one year as a high school teacher, I knew that teaching was not my long-term career. I then spent a year working for an employment agency in Chicago, Illinois. After spending a year in the business world, I knew that I wanted a profession where I could work with the public and help the public in some way. I needed to look no further than my father's profession. My father, George Weaver, was a practicing optometrist in York. I decided to follow in his footsteps and become an optometrist and return home.

What do you enjoy the most about your career as an optometrist?

I enjoy working with the public, I enjoy working with my staff and I enjoy working with my fellow optometrists in a profession that is dynamic, interesting and constantly evolving.
