A local optometrist has partnered with a statewide eye clinic that also has a local location.
In a letter to patients, Dr. James Ruppel says his practice has joined with Gailey Eye Clinic. Ruppel’s office at 834 North Seminary Street will remain as their current location, but will now bolster the Gailey name.
Ruppel and resident optometrist Dr. Elizabeth Eyler will continue on as well, though, in the letter Ruppel says he will work a “less intensive schedule.”
Gailey Eye Clinic has been in business more than 75 years and according to their website, have 14 locations throughout central Illinois.
In an unrelated partnership, Bullis & Sundberg Insurance Services announced last week that they have become a franchise partner of Keystone Insurers Group.
Bullis & Sundberg has operated in Galesburg since 1922.
