Amy Buchanan, O.D.
Dr. Amy (Fitzgibbon) Buchanan was born and raised in our community. She graduated from Midland High School. She earned her bachelor of science degree from Ferris State University in 2001 and then her doctorate degree from The Pennsylvania College of Optometry in 2005. During her college career, she was a Lions Club volunteer and a member of the board of SOSH (student optometric service to humanity). As a member of this organization, she volunteered and took a trip to Ecuador where she and her team provided free eye examinations and eyeglasses to those in need. Dr. Buchanan has two beautiful children that she adores. Dr. Buchanan brings a wealth of experience with her to our team at MMEC. Early in her career, she worked with a large team of doctors in the Grand Rapids Ophthalmology group where she further developed her ocular health evaluation skills. She then moved to another group of doctors in the Grand Rapids area where she has practiced comprehensive optometry for the past 13 years. In this group she won the “Above and Beyond Award” in 2017 for her dedication to patient care.
