Meet Joel R. Tuttle, O.D.

Meet Joel R. Tuttle, O.D.

Dr. Tuttle has been working in optometry for 2 years, both of which have been spent at LasikPlus.

Dr. Tuttle believes that the LasikPlus vision team is essential for the patients to have the best positive experience. Each team member has the opportunity to meet one on one with each patient to form a connection. Therefore, every patient feels important and can leave the clinic with their questions answered.

"I enjoy seeing patients that are either going to have laser vision correction or just had laser vision correction. Also, talking with patients and hearing their excitement about the freedom from glasses and contact lenses that they are experiencing contributes to the positive working environment that we have."

Dr. Joel R. Tuttle

Dr. Tuttle's free time away from work includes involvement in the Lutheran Church of Hope here in West Des Moines, leading a men’s group bible study, running and racing in area races, and spending time with friends and family. Dr. Tuttle is an Eagle Scout in the Boy Scouts of America and qualified for and ran in the Boston Marathon in 2009.
