MT. PLEASANT, Pa., Oct. 18, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Mt. Pleasant optometrist Dr. H. Arnold Papernick has been serving the local community for nearly 50 years. The office, located at 705 W Main Street, in Mt. Pleasant, Pennsylvania, offers full-service vision and eye care including pre- and post-operative care, routine eye exams and condition management. His office offers a full line of glasses, frames, and contact lenses to choose from.  

From his Mt. Pleasant office H. Arnold Papernick OD works each day to deliver the best care possible to his patients. “I began my practice in 1969. While much has changed in the way we diagnose, treat and correct conditions involving vision, I still believe that the key to helping people see their very best is to listen to them. It seems like everyone is always in such a hurry, but I pride myself on taking the time to really listen to my patients, answer their questions and alleviate their concerns.”

Even after 46 years in practice, Dr. Papernick still loves his work. “I enjoy what I do. I love to help people see better. The key is to love what you are doing. I’m helping people preserve and improve one of their most precious possessions: their sight. I do not merely treat eyes, but take the whole person and their general health into account. Of course, my utmost concern is for you to be happy with your new glasses, contacts or laser surgery.” 

At a time when most of his colleagues are looking forward to retirement, Dr. Papernick shows no signs of slowing down. “I have no plans for retirement at this time. Some of my patients are the third generation of the family in my care. I think that is something really special about serving in a single community for so long.”

The office of H. Arnold Papernick OD combines Dr. Papernick’s philosophy of unhurried care combined with a professional, comfortable environment. Every staff member from the receptionist to the doctor’s assistants work to ensure that every patient feels at home and cared for. “Our patients are like family to us,” says Dr. Papernick. “They are the only reason I have been able to do the work I love for the past five decades. Their comfort and care are my utmost concern and priority.”
