Optometrist
Dr. Amy Ruzicka joined Eye Associates of North Florida in 2024. She will begin with us in a part-time fashion assisting us on Saturday coverage as well as when providers are out of the practice on vacation. The strategic goal is to have her full time as providers retire and Crawfordville location opens.
