Our Story

Dr. Provost and Dr. Breeden struck up a friendship while working together in 2008. Their strong commonalities in educational background and professional philosophy paved the way for an easy and natural partnership. They met for lunch one day, decided to start a practice together, and 6 months later, in November 2009, opened the doors of our Clackamas location. 

Just over a year later, a serendipitous opportunity made it possible to open their second location in the heart of Portland’s Hollywood District, a neighborhood that they had always dreamed of joining. Every day since, our company strives to build itself around our patient’s needs, offering innovative diagnostic equipment, a curated selection of beautifully crafted eyewear, lens options, and a truly personalized experience for every patient.
