Meet Our Staff
About Us
We are not an assembly line, multi-doctor practice with long wait times, and grumpy staff members. We see patients on time. We don’t treat you like a number. Our space is warm, open and friendly.
We take the time to explain things to you. Your insurance/costs, the finer points of the exam, and the recommendations for your ocular health – we try and make sure these important things are clearly explained to you.
Our office is easily accessible online. Appointment scheduling and contact lens orders are both available via our website whenever it’s convenient for you. And Dr. Tom is happy to answer follow-up questions via email if needed.

Nicole Walker
Greetings! I am Nicole Walker, a Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University alumna from the beautiful city of Fort Lauderdale, FL. I moved to Atlanta after graduating with my Bachelors degree in Health Care Management in 2016. I have an extensive background in customer service, sales, and healthcare. I recently found joy in the optical field which brought me to Decatur Eye Care. In addition to that I am a non-fiction literature junkie. In my spare time, you can find me lost in a good book.

Chatanya Stephens
My name is Chatanya Stephens, a mother of two beautiful boys hailing from Pontiac Michigan. I am currently a third year sociology major at Troy University. In the near future, I hope to open a fine arts academy for underprivileged girls. In my spare time, you'll more than likely find me somewhere taking a dance class.
