Dr. Robert Gonzalez
Dr. Gonzalez graduated from San Diego State University in 2004 with a Bachelor of Science in Biology. After graduation, he spent two years doing genetic research at the University of San Francisco, although he eventually began to grow weary of laboratory work. Seeking to build on his affinity toward science in the direction of helping others, he enrolled in The Illinois College of Optometry and obtained his doctorate in 2011.
Dr. Gonzalez has since dedicated himself to the highest standard of eye care. Having completed externships throughout the country, he has developed an interest in ocular disease management including Dry Eye, Glaucoma, and Macular Degeneration.
In 2009, he donated his time to Volunteer Optometric Services to Humanity (VOSH), conducting hundreds of eye exams and delivering glasses at no charge in Peru. Shortly thereafter, he was introduced to Dr. Jeffrey Hall, and a friendship based on their mutual passion for humanitarian outreach. In 2013, Dr. Robert Gonzalez purchased Lake Murray Optometric from Dr. Hall, and they remain great friends.
Outside of work, you can find Dr. Gonzalez and his wife Jessica growing organic food, debating whether or not to get more chickens, and taking their dogs Snoopy and August on adventures!
