Meet the Optometrist

Jessica Huynh is an optometrist at Kubo Optometry, and loves what she does. When Dr. Huynh became an eye doctor, she knew that she would be helping people solve problems relating to their vision. But little did she know she’d also be saving people’s lives!

When Dr. Huynh was doing rotations at optometry school, her staff dealt with a patient who had visual field defects. After conducting tests, it turned out the patient had a brain tumor. That experience helped Dr. Huynh to realize just how important a role eye doctors play in people’s lives.

Dr. Huynh grew up in Roseville, CA, and completed her undergraduate studies at University of California-Davis, which is a mere 45 minutes away. After completing her undergrad, she ventured east to Indiana for Optometry school, followed by a move to Ohio State University to complete her residency. Then she moved back to California to practice in Sacramento.

While studying at UC Davis, Dr. Huynh met Dr. Kubo and he became her mentor. After completing optometry school, Dr. Huynh’s career took off. It took her only four years to transition from working as a technician, to an associate, to eventually becoming the practice owner!

So what exactly is Dr. Huynh’s favorite part about Kubo Optometry? The people! She loves working with people and staying connected to friends and family who are now her patients.

When she’s not seeing patients at the eye clinic, Dr. Huynh likes to unwind by spending time with her two sons. She also loves to travel, eat, snowboard and run. In fact, she enjoys running so much that she participates in a 10k race every month!

Dr. Tiffany Lu is a primary care optometrist practicing for over 15 years. She obtained her doctor of optometry degree from New England College of Optometry in Boston, and her bachelor of science degree of Neurobiology, Physiology, and Behavior from UC Davis.

Dr. Lu finds great joy in solving patient’s visual problems and concerns. She believes listening is the key to finding a solution. In her spare time, Dr. Lu travels with her husband, and in her leisure time enjoys shopping for a great deal and tending to her garden.
