Dr. Samantha Bautista's number one priority is creating a friendly environment where her patients can learn about their eyes and receive expertise-level vision care. Dr. Bautista helps patients see and feel their best by personalizing their treatment in glasses and contacts.

She knew from a young age that her passion was serving and building relationships with people, and she discovered Optometry to be the perfect career. Dr. Bautista obtained her Doctorate degree at State University of New York (SUNY) College of Optometry. She returned to the Bay Area where she continued providing compassionate care to patients of all ages and diverse backgrounds at various optometry and ophthalmology private practice settings.
Dr. Samantha Bautista is an active board member of the San Mateo County Optometric Society and California Optometric Association. Outside of the office, Dr. Bautista is a major foodie.
