Meet the Doctor
Dr. Joseph Hartman
Doctor of OptometryDr. Joseph Hartman, O.D. grew up in Palma de Mallorca, Balearic Islands, Spain. He attended the University of Barcelona ( 1985) and then Pennsylvania College of Optometry at Salus University (2007). In addition to his years of experience he is residency trained (2008) in Primary Care Optometry and Ocular Disease. He is Board Certified (2014). He’s been in practice since 1985 and his specialties are Dry Eye, Glaucoma, Keratoconus, Corneal Refractive Therapy, MYOPIA CONTROL and Multifocal Contact Lenses.
Since he was a child he always wanted to help people. So in his teens he decided that being a doctor was the best way to do this. The gift of vision fascinated him so helping people prevent their loss of it is rewarding to him. In fact, he says his favorite patient story is this: One of his patients thought he needed glasses for reading but Dr. Hartman instead discovered that the patient had a brain tumor and saved his life. In 2006, Dr. Hartman received the Lions Club reward for Community Services. In 2013 Dr. Hartman received the Walmart Doctor of the Year of the Western Division. While not at work Dr. Hartman enjoys outdoors activities such as hiking and kayaking with family. He is also a Basic Keelboat Instructor of the American Sailing Association.
