About Jennifer Tam, OD

I knew at an early age that I wanted to help others; what better way than to give another person the gift of sight? I believe that everyone is an individual with different needs and feel it is important to listen to the patient in order to address their concerns. I strive to provide thorough, compassionate and personalized care to my patients. When I am away from the office, I enjoy spending time with my family, scrapbooking, photography and Zumba.

Dr Tam went out of her way to get my husband an appointment in the same afternoon because of a scheduling mix up with his appointment.
