As of May 1st, 2014 the offices and patient records of Thomas E. Unterbrink, OD and David A. Gladwell Optometry, INC. have merged and are doing business as Bedford Family Eye Care. Under my new direction and ownership, we may have a new look and feel, but we're still here for you with good hometown style eye care - and that's something that will not change. As Bedford Family Eye Care we will continue our commitment to helping you achieve clear, and comfortable vision and maintain excellent eye health in a comfortable environment at an affordable price. I look forward to seeing you for many years to come!
I first started providing optometry services in Bedford in January of 2013. My associate, Dr. Weatherholt, was helping the two optometry clinics transition from the retiring doctors. I was invited by Dr. Weatherholt and Gladwell to join them in providing optometry services given my background and interest in the Bedford area. The first year of transition overall went well and much constructive feedback was given to aid in the process. We have a few new faces here since some of you were in last, but I think you'll feel right at home. Wendy and Karla will put you at ease with their friendliness and professionalism. They both have great experience and a solid understanding of modern eye care, optical, insurance, coding, electronic billing, etc. and I've worked hard to identify issues from start to finish in order to make the eye exams at Bedford Family Eye Care the highlight of your day. We look forward to the next phase of transition. As always - we welcome and invite your feedback. I have specifically built a patient satisfaction survey as part of our website to collect your feedback and constructive comments. You can find it here at our Location and Scheduling page. Scroll down to find it. I often reflect and remind our team (and sometimes our patients ;) that change is difficult for everyone, but it is necessary because it allows for growth -- and that is exactly what we have experienced this year -- so much so that we have outgrown our current location. So the next phase of transition will be relocating our office from 412 N. Bridge Street to the new location at 1332 A Lowry Street over between the Virginia Furniture Market and Berglund Buick GMC dealership by Walmart. The new location will provide more space to allow greater efficiency, also an expanded dispensary and greater glasses selection, better parking, and more patient privacy. We invite your feedback!

Again, I am looking forward to getting to meet and know each of you, and I hope to see you soon in our new building! Thanks for making Bedford the best little town to work and live.
Sincerely,
Jared P. Quesenberry, O.D.
