Stevie spends her free time with her boyfriend, Matt, and her dogs, Harley and Davy. She is the oldest of 3 children, which has always required a lot of responsibilities. In her free time she enjoys spending time with her family and friends, shopping, singing, dancing, and modeling. She also enjoys playing racquetball, motorcycling, and being outdoors.

If you have any questions about glasses or contacts lenses, feel free to call and ask for Stevie, she will be happy to help you.

Lisa Gambrell is our Billing/ Insurance Coordinator and technician. She has been with us since October 2009. She has been in the field of Ophthalmology/ Optometry for 19 years. She has been involved in all aspects of a medical office from administrative to practice management. Lisa was the Education Coordinator at UTSW for the Department of Ophthalmology for 5 years, where with the Program Director, she was responsible for the academic side of the ophthalmology resident training program. Through the years, Lisa's experience has been patient and staff education. Although her degree is in Crime and Justice Studies, the field of Ophthalmology/ Optometry has captured her heart. As you will hear her say often..."there is not another field where you can have immediate affect upon someone... a patient's vision".

Lisa is the oldest of 6 children and is known as the family clown. She enjoys being around family and friends, reading/ poetry, thrift stores, action movies, and watching crime shows on TV. She is the proud mother of a 19 year old son, Diamonte', that is her heart. Lisa also enjoys modeling, which she pursues in her free time.

If you have an insurance question or just an "eye" question in general, please feel free to ask for Lisa. She is always willing to assist her patients.
