Boozman-Hof Eye Surgery and Laser Center Celebrates 10 Years

The Boozman-Hof Eye Surgery and Laser Center has come a long way since its opening as the first opthalmic-specific surgery center in northwest Arkansas 10 years ago.

When the clinic opened on April 1, 1996, it provided area residents something they’d not had before, said Chris Campbell, clinic marketing director. "(The clinic) allowed patients to receive professional cataract, glaucoma, retinal and other eye disease treatments in northwest Arkansas for the first time."

And while much has changed — former partners Fay Boozman, who died last year, and his brother John, the area’s representative in Congress, are no longer affiliated with the clinic — Dr. C. William Hof is still chief executive officer.

Over the years, the staff at the center has increased. There are now three full-time optometrists and one full-time doctor on staff.

There is also a branch office in Bella Vista. "On behalf of our doctors and staff in the surgery center, I’d like to thank all of our patients for their trust in us over these past 10 years," said Medical Director Dr. Randy Cole.
