Hi! I have been with Dr. Johnson since Sept. 1999. Although I have been in the optometric field since 1993, I find my position in the office challenging. There is always something new to learn, and lucky for me, Dr. Johnson encourages continuing education.

My office duties are varied, but I am mostly in charge of the business aspect, which includes accounts payable, accounts receivable, and billing insurances. I am also the Laser Vision Coordinator. I coordinate with the surgery centers to schedule the best time for your procedure.

LASIK also involves a series of pre and postoperative appointments. At the time your procedure is scheduled, I will also schedule these appointments. If you have any financial questions about laser vision correction, I am the person you want to see. So, if you have any questions, or if you want to schedule a free, no-obligation LASIK consultation, please feel free to give me a call.

Hello! My name is Lupita and I am the person you will see when checking out for your visit as well as scheduling your future appointments. I am fairly new to the optometry world an I LOVE IT. I am a big-time 49ers fan and dog lover. My goal every day in the office is to put a smile on someone or making them laugh. I look forward to meeting you on your visit and welcome aboard.

I bring with me 20 years of optometric experience. I enjoy working with patients ensuring they receive the best vision care possible. I am challenged daily by the ever-changing advancements in technology and vision care products that enable the office to be state-of-the-art.

I look forward to meeting and working with you during your next visit to the office.
