Meet Our Doctors
Two generations of Bozeman optometry under one roof — caring for Gallatin Valley families since 1979.
Dr. John Anderson, O.D.
Dr. John Anderson has proudly served the Bozeman area for years, providing vision care to patients of all ages. He is trained and experienced in the latest technology for diagnosing and managing macular degeneration, glaucoma, dry eye, cataracts, and eye infections, and provides pre- and post-operative care for refractive and cataract surgery.
Dr. Anderson earned his Bachelor of Science in zoology at Idaho State University and his Doctorate of Optometry from the University of the Incarnate Word Rosenberg School of Optometry in San Antonio, Texas. He completed internships at two San Antonio-area clinics as well as Brooke Army Medical Clinic at Fort Sam Houston, and is a member of the American Optometric Association.
Dr. Thomas Sather, O.D.
Dr. Sather opened his private practice in Bozeman on March 1, 1979, and has cared for Gallatin Valley families ever since — more than four decades of hometown eye care. His goal has always been the same: provide the most up-to-date eye care available, with the personalized service and attention every patient deserves.
Dr. Sather earned his B.S. from Montana State University in 1973, a B.S. in Physiological Optics from the University of California, Berkeley in 1976, and his Doctor of Optometry degree from UC Berkeley in 1978. He and his wife Jackie raised two children, Brett and Kelsey, both born in Bozeman and graduates of Bozeman High School. He has been active in the Gallatin Empire Lions Club and Boy Scouts.
Our approach to eye care
Some practices are built for volume. Ours is built for the long haul. We take the time to explain what we see in your exam, answer your questions in plain language, and track your eye health year over year with retinal imaging — because the best way to protect your vision is to catch changes early, and the best way to catch changes early is a doctor who knows your eyes. That's how this practice has earned the trust of Bozeman families since 1979, and it's how we intend to keep it.
