Our Team

Dr. Parth Amin is no stranger to Southaven. He attended grade school at Sacred Heart and finished high school at Desoto Central. He later graduated as Magna Cum Laude from the University of Memphis with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biomedical Engineering. Dr. Amin later changed career paths and decided to attend Southern College of Optometry (SCO) where he then graduated from in 2019. Dr. Amin joined Corporate Optometry in Memphis, TN, where he realized that he belonged in a private practice, and returned back home to Southaven.  

As a licensed optometrist, Dr. Amin provides exams, diagnoses, and treatments of all disorders that are vision related or affect the eye. He is trained to recognize a range of health issues; such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetes and hypertension. Dr. Amin works hard to stay current on the latest advances in eye health & vision care, and regularly attends continuing education seminars as well as advanced training courses. 

It is because of Dr. Amin's dedication to continuing education that our Southaven patients receive the most modern and progressive vision care available.   When out of the office, he enjoys spending time with family and friends, running, hiking, and watching the Memphis Tigers and Grizzlies play. Dr. Parth Amin looks forward to serving and giving back to the community he calls home.
