I am a highly experienced optometrist with over 10 years of experience in the eye care field. We have all been frustrated with doctors who either didn't listen or didn't seem to care! My approach to healthcare is deeply rooted in the belief that the patient is in charge of their health. Our job as doctors then is to help support you to have the best health possible. I want to help you have great eye health for your whole life!
I love seeing the difference that having great vision makes in people's lives! I became an eye doctor because I didn't know I needed glasses as a kid. It was amazing to see clearly after living life in blur and not realizing it! Years of schooling and work led our family to live in many wonderful places. We have lived across the Pacific Northwest, in different areas in Northern Utah, and most recently in Billings, Montana. We are the proud parents to three wonderful children.
I bring years of experience and expertise to help you better understand your eyes. With a patient-first approach, I am here to guide you on your journey to better vision and eye health. From annual eye exams to managing chronic conditions, I am committed to offering comprehensive, high-quality healthcare for every stage of life.
My commitment to excellence in healthcare is backed by rigorous education and ongoing professional development.
If I could give more ⭐️'s I would! Dr. Beard is very thorough and knowledgeable. He has our business for life.
Dr. Beard worked and worked and worked with me to find contacts that would allow me to see far and also not need reading glasses. It took many trials, because I have astigmatism, and I am very near-sighted and need reading glasses. He found contacts that work! I can wear them and see near and far! Thank you Dr. Beard!
My eye exam with Dr. Beard was great! He was thorough and knowledgeable, and very informative. He explained more about my eye health than other doctors have in the past and patiently answered all my questions. I really appreciated that! It was a very positive experience and would recommend him to anyone, without hesitation! Definitely 5 stars!
I took my daughter in for a check up and for the first time in my life I heard an explanation of how the eye grows and why eyes sometimes see poorly in the first place. After a life time of wearing glasses, I really appreciated a doctor who explained the science of it without us even asking. It was great!
Dr Beard and all of the employees were really friendly and helpful! They were out of network for my insurance, but were upfront about the costs and it came out cheaper than in network places! The exam rooms were clean and equipment high end!
Dr. Beard was patient and exlained things very well. He gave me new options and I love the results.
