Dr. Heather A. Tuttle – Optometrist

Dr. Heather Tuttle grew up in Mitchell, SD.  She obtained her Bachelor’s degree in Biology while at South Dakota State University. After growing up needing glasses at an early age, she knew she wanted to pursue a career in optometry to help others like her.  She moved to the West Coast where she attended Southern California College of Optometry.  She completed clinical work at Phoenix Indian Medical Center, San Diego Naval Medical Center, and Omaha Eye and Laser Institute.  In 2007, she graduated from SCCO Magna Cum Laude.  After graduating from optometry school, Dr. Tuttle wanted to move closer to friends and family in the Midwest and moved to the Twin Cities.  After gaining experience working in a variety of different optometric settings and clinics, Dr. Tuttle opened Precision Eye Care in January of 2012 with the goal of providing exceptional eye care and personalized service.

Dr. Tuttle and her husband, Jason reside in Minnetrista. Her husband is a PhyEd and Special Ed teacher at Mound/Westonka. They have a 7 year old son named Porter and a Dachshund mix dog named Bailey. Dr. Tuttle enjoys spending time with her family and friends, golfing at Island View, and keeping up with her active little boy and all of his activities.

Ariel- ABO Certified Optician

I am originally from Sioux Falls, SD. I attended college at North Dakota State University where I obtained my Bachelor of Science degree in Human Development & Family Science. I joined Precision Eye Care in 2013, and have been recognized by the American Board of Opticianry as a Certified Optician and also by the American Optometric Association as a Certified Paraoptometric. My favorite thing about my job is having the opportunity to help our patients find eyewear that matches their personality and style, while meeting their visual needs as well.

My husband, Aaron, and I live in Chaska with our daughter Leah, and our sons Eli and Ethan. In my free time I enjoy doing crafts, reading, spending time with family and friends and being at the lake.

Jamie – Technician and Optician, CPO and ABO Certified

My previous experience as an Optician helped me begin my Technician role at Precision Eye Care in February of 2016. I am a Certified Paraoptometric to better serve our patients and continue my education. My favorite part of my day is meeting new people and helping with their exams and eyewear.

I love living in Waconia with my husband, Kyle, our cat, Rya, and our dog, Barkley. In my free time I love to spend time with family and at our cabin.

I love helping patients of all ages and enjoy all fashion-forward eyewear trends. I currently have 25 pairs of glasses!

I live in Hamburg with my husband Greg, and son Leo. In my free time I enjoy working out, traveling and spending time at our cabin in the summer.
