A Personal Journey, Provider & Patient
Nicole’s journey with ocular prosthetics is personal. She has been a patient at Robert B. Scott Ocularists since infancy, which ignited her passion for helping others feel confident and comfortable with their own prostheses. With over a decade of experience as an ocularist and a lifetime of wearing an artificial eye, Nicole understands firsthand the importance of a natural appearance, a comfortable fit, and compassionate care. She is well-versed in all aspects of patient care, from custom fitting to ongoing support, and collaborates with ophthalmologists to ensure the best outcomes for her patients.
Continuing the tradition of excellence established by Robert B. Scott Ocularists, Nicole is dedicated to blending the latest technology with a personal touch that makes each patient feel truly cared for. Her mission is to help each patient feel as comfortable and confident with their prosthesis as she does with hers.
