Dr. Ann K. Miyamura
Dr. Miyamura was born and raised in Hilo, on the Big Island of Hawaii. After graduating from Hilo High School, she continued her education at the University of Hawaii at Manoa, and became a member of a number of honor societies, including Phi Beta Kappa.
Dr. Miyamura earned her Doctor of Optometry degree from the University of California at Berkeley in 1996, after which she moved to Sacramento. She has practiced in offices in Sacramento, Stockton, Davis, and Vacaville, as well as performing quality management reviews for a number of vision plans. Dr. Miyamura joined the practice of Dr. Teresa Gerard in 1998 and feels fortunate to serve the community for the last 18 years. She prefers being in private practice over the HMO or retail settings because it allows for more personal care and individual attention. |
Dr. Miyamura's interests are primarily food and music. She is an avid baker, baking (literally) over a thousand cookies each Christmas season, and prefers a delicate crisp cookie, but also enjoys some chewy ones. For a few years, she was also baking loaves of homemade artisan style bread, but had to stop because of the carbs! Dr. Miyamura also plays the flute (and a little piano), and was very active in her High School and College Bands. She is a former member of the Sacramento Community Concert Band.
Dr. Teresa M. Gerard - Retired
Dr. Gerard was born and raised in the Chicago area. She attended the University of Notre Dame and graduated in 1982 with a Bachelor of Science degree. Heading for warmer climates, she attended the Southern California College of Optometry in Fullerton, CA, and received her Doctor of Optometry degree in 1986.
After moving to the Sacramento area, Dr. Gerard opened her practice, Optometric Care of Sacramento in 1987 and has been practicing in Rancho Cordova until her retirement from practice.
As of May 2010, Dr. Gerard retired from optometric practice, and you will find her busy taking care of her family: her husband, two wonderful children, and two corgies. She is pleased to have sold her practice to Dr. Miyamura, who has worked in the practice since May 1998. Dr. Gerard and her family see Dr. Miyamura as their family optometrist, and visits the office periodically.
