If you've been in the practice recently, you'll probably have met our wonderful (newish) optical assistant, Julia. Here she is in her new Essilor GENS transition lenses which she loves!
Originally from Canada, Julia brings a wealth of experience to the role. After relocating to Scotland to pursue a master's degree in literature, she decided to continue working in the optical field. Passionate about eyewear and optical care, she helps provide top-notch service to our patients.
As the first point of contact for many of our patients, Julia thrives on creating a welcoming and comfortable environment for everyone who walks through our door. She enjoys building relationships with patients and ensuring their eye care needs are met with the utmost care and professionalism.
When it comes to eyewear, Julia’s favourite brand is Calvin Klein and she loves helping others find great eyewear as she appreciates it can be a challenge!
When Julia isn’t helping patients, you can find her reading books, writing, or playing guitar and piano. An all-around creative, Julia brings a fresh perspective and energy to the team. She loves the local area, wandering around the Botanics, as well as walking around the streets admiring the architecture, as well as some beautiful private gardens along the way.
