Dr. Rachel Groff is a bubbly eye doc who finds joy in making each patient smile or laugh at least once before leaving her exam chair. She was born and raised in the Phoenix Arizona desert and, as such, thrives when she is outdoors. Whether it be hiking, climbing, or biking, Rachel is up for whatever gets her outside. She graduated from University of Arizona with a major in Nutritional Sciences. She then decided to face the winters in Columbus Ohio while attending The Ohio State College of Optometry where she quickly learned that biking on frozen roads is not okay.
In her free time she also enjoys spending time with family, friends, her dog and all other dogs of the world. During NBA season, Rachel can be found at a different microbrewery each week catching her Phoenix suns on the big screen. Come see Dr. Groff and get your eye exam with a side of laughter to boot!
