Dr. Branning earned her BA in Biology from Indiana University in 1981 and her Doctorate from Indiana University School of Optometry in 1985. She moved to Ludington in August 1985 to practice with Kenneth Tewel, Jr., MD. In 1991, Dr. Branning purchased West Shore Eye Care and created a more traditional optometric practice. In June 2004 West Shore Eye Care relocated to its new state of the art facility which includes a specialty sunglass shop and high tech equipment used to detect eye disease and help with patient education. Dr. Branning enjoys caring for children and kids love her. The new office includes a children's examination room with an "under the sea" theme, a large playroom, and lots of child friendly exam tools! Dr. Branning lives in Scottville with her husband and their two children. She is a member of the American Optometric Association and The Michigan Optometric Association and is active in her church. She enjoys traveling, scrapbooking, tennis and entertaining friends.
