About Sara

Dr. Sillik-Hale is extremely passionate about pediatric eye care since it is how she discovered she wanted to become an optometrist. Her main goal is providing the same positive, joyful, and caring experience she had at her own first eye exam. Her goal is to welcome each patient, parent and guardian as a member of the ABC family. She strives to provide each patient with the highest quality care.
During her time in optometry school, Dr. Sillik-Hale found a great source of joy in participating in The Neighborhood Christian Clinic where she assisted in providing eye exams for populations without insurance and poor access to healthcare.
