Dr. Schauffele has been a welcome addition to our office since 2003, and purchased the practice in 2018. She is a caring doctor, qualified to perform full scope optometric care. She especially enjoys fitting a variety of routine and specialty contact lenses. She feels strongly that children deserve routine eyecare and provides a child-friendly environment to ease the introduction. Babies age 6 months to a year are screened free under the InfantSee program.
Additional passions include her Myopia Management program and new advanced Dry Eye Clinic. Dr. Schauffele completed her undergraduate studies at Pacific Union College in the Napa Valley in 1997 and married her college sweetheart, Randy, that summer. She then pursued a graduate degree in optometry at the UC Berkeley School of Optometry.
She and Randy are raising two sons in Sacramento, where Randy grew up, and enjoy being close to many extended family members and the boys' cousins. Some personal interests include reading, gardening, and crafts. You will see her Little Lending Library in the office entry room for all patients to enjoy. She is currently a member of the American Optometric Association, the California Optometric Association, the Sacramento Valley Optometric Society, and the Embarcadero Lions Club. She has served as Director on the Northern California Lions Sight Association board, and as past treasurer of the Sacramento Valley Optometric Society.
