Evolving Optometry through Integrative Medicine with Dr. Neda Gioia
How do you build a practice that treats more than just vision?
In this episode of Wavelengths, Dr. Neda Gioia shares how her own health journey led her to build an integrative optometry practice that blends nutrition, functional medicine, and data-driven care. We talk about bringing compassion back to the patient experience, building the right team, and why whole-body health belongs in the exam lane.
Wavelengths is hosted by Lee Kuczewski, Chief Customer Officer at Heru, and Dr. Masoud Nafey, a leading voice in innovation at the intersection of eye care, AI, and healthcare strategy.
