Meet Dr. Richard Milner

Richard Milner, O.D., received his Doctor of Optometry from the Southern College of Optometry in May 2024 and earned his Bachelor of Science in Biology from Austin Peay State University in 2020. He was inspired to pursue optometry by a desire to provide quality eye care in rural communities where access to specialized healthcare can sometimes be limited.

Dr. Milner has a strong interest in ocular disease and focuses on diagnosing and managing conditions that affect both eye health and overall wellness. He finds optometry especially rewarding because it allows him to not only care for patients’ eyes but also identify and manage certain systemic health issues, making a real impact beyond vision alone.

One of the most fulfilling parts of his work is the relationships he builds with his patients. Dr. Milner truly enjoys getting to know his patients over time and supporting their eye health through each stage of life. He’s committed to making a difference in his community by providing compassionate, personalized care that improves quality of life for his patients.
