Practice History
The Aboite Family Eyecare Center was established by Dr. Thomas Zachman
in October of 1985.
It was first located on Covington Road in the Time Corners area of Fort Wayne, Indiana. The clinic has grown every year since then and has become one of the larger and more successful independent Optometry practices in northeast Indiana. This growth has been largely accomplished by word-of-mouth referral, due to our efforts to provide our patients with high quality individualized eye care and continually striving to provide excellence in service. In 1995, because of the growth of the practice we relocated to Dr. Zachman's newly constructed and spacious office building, located at 7625 W. Jefferson Blvd. It is in the Midwest Office Medical Park, across Jefferson Blvd. from Lutheran Hospital.
We want to be your family's eye care provider now and also in the future. To earn your trust enough to become you and your family's eyecare provider, our experienced staff work to put our patients at ease, and their needs first. and we continually invest in the latest technology for cutting edge eye care, and medical and ophthalmic continuing education for doctor and staff.
We take pride in our efforts, and feel we are being successful, because we have patients who have moved out of state, and others whose insurance coverage has changed and they return every year for their annual eye exams with Dr. Zachman.
