Native New Yorker, she fell in love with Texas and transplanted her career here in Austin. She’s served a number of cities such as Boston and Houston and is now excited to serve the community of Austin/Round Rock/Hutto!

Dr. Josephine Do

Dr. Josephine Do

As the eldest of six children, Dr. Josephine Do has always been surrounded by a sense of family and responsibility, which has deeply influenced her personal and professional ethos.

Born and raised in Houston, Texas, Dr. Do completed her undergraduate education at The University of Texas at Austin, earning her B.S. in Human Biology. Once she graduated, she says she pursued her true passion, obtaining her optometry degree at the New England College of Optometry (NECO) in Boston. 

Dr. Do completed her externships at a private practice in Manchester, NH, a community health center in East Boston, MA, and two veterans affairs hospitals in Portland, OR, and Bedford, MA. Throughout her externships, she gained experience in managing ocular disease, focusing on diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, corneal disease, contact lenses, dry eye treatment, and glaucoma.

Dr. Do is certified by the National Board of Examiners in Optometry and is a member of the American Academy of Optometry, American Optometric Association, and Texas Optometric Association. She is a licensed eye doctor in Alaska and Texas, a fact she says represents more than just a professional milestone, testifying to her commitment to serving diverse communities and adapting to various healthcare needs.

Since 2019, she has considered it a privilege to grow as an eye care professional. She is passionate about building connections with her patients and finding purpose in understanding that even our briefest moments together can leave a lasting imprint on our lives.

Community service is a cornerstone of Dr. Do’s personal and professional life, largely thanks to her father, who runs a non-profit community center in Greater Houston that provides essential services, education, and housing support to economically disadvantaged families and senior citizens. She contributes to this mission by participating in health screenings and volunteering during the weekly food fair.

When she’s away from the office, Dr. Do enjoys rock climbing, hiking, and any other activity that allows her to spend time outdoors. She’d love to extend her nurturing spirit to fostering fur babies someday.

Outside of the office, Dr. Huynh participates in mission trips to Baja California with Flying Samaritans to offer medical assistance and education to the people in rural areas of Mexico.

Asked what her favorite part of her day at the clinic is, Dr. Nguyen would say that she finds it interesting and engaging to help patients with eye emergencies such as eye infections, eye injuries, and embedded foreign bodies.
