She served as clinical director at TLC Laser Eye Centers in Charleston prior to entering private practice and opening Sweetgrass Eyecare in 2014. Dr. Curry and her team strive to provide excellent customer service, taking time to learn the wants and needs of each patient and provide appropriate solutions.
