For Dr. Flynn, the most fulfilling aspect of being an optometrist is forging enduring connections with her patients. She cherishes the time spent with them in the clinic, as it allows her to build trust and establish strong relationships. By getting to know and understand her patients deeply, she can better address their visual needs and manage their ocular health effectively. Outside of work, Dr. Flynn loves to read fiction, take nature walks and morning spin classes. She also enjoys camping and exploring new restaurants with her wife and friends.
