The Visionaries Behind Total Vision

The leadership team at Total Vision is made up of some of the industry’s most talented and experienced professionals.

Neil Collier

Chief Executive Officer

Neil has over 3 decades of operations experience at large-scale, multi-site healthcare businesses. He has successfully driven business growth and has led high-performing field operations and professional service teams, most recently as the chief operating officer of the Center for Vein Restoration, a multi-site practice management business based in Virginia.

One of Neil’s most prominent accomplishments was his prior work as VP of operations at MyEyeDr, which grew from 38 offices to 341 in less than 5 years during his time there. We are excited to leverage his extensive experience in the optometry space, including the successful integration of new optometry practices, increasing year over year store sales, and enhancing team member and patient experience. Neil’s values, work style, and results will match well with the “better together” foundation that has already been established at Total Vision.

In his free time, Neil enjoys golf and snowboarding.
