Jamie Boyd, OD
The reason I became an optometrist is: I knew since high school that I wanted to go in to the medical field. However, emotionally I couldn’t bare taking on a profession that dealt with life and death on a regular basis. I joined the premed club at NCSU and quickly realized optometry was it! Not only can I give someone great sight through glasses or contacts, but I can help them extend their sight and life through treatments and better lifestyle practices. It is such a positive profession, and I truly enjoy seeing my patients and catching up on their life each time I see them.
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and kiddos. I love traveling, exploring the great outdoors, working out, and reading. My favorite part of helping my patients is improving the quality of their life through better vision and helping them manage/ treat their ocular and systemic health.
