SightMD Connecticut has announced the acquisition of Doctor & Associates, which provides advanced eye care services in Fairfield County, US.

This move marks a vital step in SightMD Connecticut's strategy to offer vision care across the southern part of the state.

Doctor & Associates is operating out of three locations in Westport, Wilton, and Norwalk. The practice is staffed by a team of ophthalmologists and dedicated technical personnel.

The acquisition adds three physicians to SightMD Connecticut, namely ophthalmologists Spiro Combest and Michael Bautista, as well as Doctors & Associates' medical director Leslie Doctor.

Doctor said: "Joining SightMD Connecticut allows us to build on this foundation by offering patients access to enhanced resources, advanced technologies, and a seamless care network that extends throughout the state.

“I am particularly looking forward to collaborating with the talented professionals at SightMD Connecticut. Together, we can expand access to specialised services like cataract surgery, Lasik, cornea care, and more while remaining deeply rooted in the Fairfield County community."

Sight Growth Partners serves as the administrative services provider for SightMD, SightMD Connecticut, SightMD Pennsylvania and SightMD New Jersey.

Sight Growth Partners CEO Jonathan Lujan said: "Doctor & Associates is a perfect complement to the SightMD Connecticut family. Their decades-long commitment to providing advanced eye care aligns seamlessly with SightMD CT's vision to offer patients convenient, integrated services close to home."
