Meet Dr. Elise Bugenske
Meet Dr. Elise Bugenske, an optometrist who graduated from Indiana University School of Optometry in 2014. Originally from Michigan, she enjoys summer trips to visit family there. Alongside her hobbies of gardening, crafts, history, and traveling, Dr. B cherishes time spent with her nieces, Alexa and Elodie. Her furry companions, Teddy, Archie, and Tiger, bring her joy as well.
Dr. B’s passion lies in treating various eye issues, with a particular interest in glaucoma and retinal diseases. She joined Family Eye Clinic in early 2020 and assumed leadership after Dr. Mike’s retirement in late 2022.
As an optometrist, Dr. B aims to create a compassionate, informative environment where patients can freely ask questions about their health. Her mother, a cardiologist, greatly influenced her philosophy, emphasizing the value of attentive listening. With her personal experiences as someone who is nearsighted and has undergone multiple eye procedures, Dr. B brings a unique perspective to eyecare, enabling her to empathize with many patient conditions.
