To all my patients,

After much contemplation and reflection, I am announcing my retirement from Dr. Gary Gold and Associates as of November 4, 2024. Although I know the timing is right, it is with mixed emotions that I have come to this decision. It has been my absolute privilege and joy to get to know you, my patients, and share in our lives together during my time here at this office. I will sincerely miss this the most. It has been an incredible journey and I will always be grateful for the role that you have played in my career life.

In leaving, be assured that your optometric needs remain of utmost importance, and that you may continue your care with any of the optometrists at Dr. Gary Gold and Associates. It’s essential that you continue with your annual eye exams, follow up visits, and testing as advised. Please contact me or the staff if we can be of any assistance with the transition process.  I want to express my heartfelt thanks and appreciation for a blessed and rewarding 31 years. I wish you all the best.
