McCook Eye Clinic to Relocate

After nearly 50 years in the Professional Building on East C Street, optometry partners, Rob Stamm, O.D., and Dirk Gray, O. D., are relocating the McCook Eye Clinic. But first, they have to move some dirt and build their new, state-of-the art facility at the corner of West Second and D Street. The added space at the new location will allow for expanded technology as well as additional parking. Completion of the project is scheduled for September or October. Location is not the only thing changing in that the new facility will also operate under the new name, "Lifetime Eye Care".
