Lusk Eye Specialist Culture:
Our culture at Lusk Eye Specialists is as unique as our family history. Founder surgeon, James Lusk came to Shreveport over 40 years to develop a practice founded on family practice. Over the years, his two sons have joined the practice and continued his culture of treating patients like family by family.
Each quarter, time is set aside to celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, practice successes and unique patient stories. We are also committed to helping our local communities, which is why we founded ‘Giving Thanks, Saving Vision,’ a 2-day event every Thanksgiving week where our local optometrists refer in their less fortunate patients who need cataract surgery but are without insurance or the ability to pay.
It is the best reminder of what we are truly trained and prepared to do as eye doctors.
