Dr. Nicole Sim, O.D.

Picture
Dr. Nicole Sim grew up in sunny Los Angeles. She fell in love with the beautiful Bay Area after visiting the bay in high school. She attended UC Berkeley and received a B.A. in Molecular Cell Biology. During her undergraduate studies, she volunteered at Albany-Berkeley Optometry and met Dr. Teresa Goldberg who inspired her to pursue a career in optometry. Dr. Sim graduated from the UC Berkeley School of Optometry, receiving the Dean’s Award for her thesis

Dr. Sim has diverse experience in the treatment of eye conditions and diseases. She was trained in various clinics such as a retinal specialty clinic, a low income trauma center and a vision training center for children. She has extensive experience in LASIK co-management, primary care optometry and dry eye treatment, along with other ocular diseases.  

Dr. Sim is the clinical director at Albany-Berkeley Optometry. Dr. Sim understands and values the important role of a primary care optometrist in taking care of not just patients’ eyes but their overall health.

When Dr. Sim is not taking care of her patients, she is taking care of her active boy. She is passionate about traveling the world with her husband and her child. She also loves to practice yoga and to experience many wonders the Bay Area offers.

Dr. Sara Abboud, O.D.

Picture
Dr. Abboud is originally from Southern California, where she received her Bachelor of Science degree in Biology at UC Irvine. She pursued her dream of becoming an optometrist at the UC Berkeley School of Optometry. At the end of her training, she graduated with the distinction of Honors in Research and received the William Feinbloom Low Vision Award. 
​

Outside of UC Berkeley, her clinical externships included providing primary and urgent care at VA hospitals across the country, including Arizona, Florida, and Hawaii. She is glaucoma certified, practices full scope optometry, and is a native Spanish speaker. Apart from delivering comprehensive vision care to all of her patients, she is also completing her PhD at UC Berkeley. Dr. Abboud is dedicated to providing personable, comprehensive care to all of her patients and hopes her research will expand our knowledge about ocular immunology and eye infections.

In her free time, she loves to travel with her fiancé, explore the Bay Area, oil paint, and spend quality time with her family.
