Liz went to Aston University and qualified as an Optometrist in 1991. Having worked in hospitals, independent and multiple environments for a few years before opening Oakwood Eyecare Centre with her husband, Tom in 1994. She loves her gadgets so was in her element when we got the OCT eye scanner in 2013. Liz is known for her caring nature, she excels with young and old alike, but this is why having the “time” to spend with her patients is vital.
