Q&A: Craig Campbell, optometrist

Clinical Practice
Craig Campbell, optometrist and practice manager at JM MacDonald Opticians in Portree, Skye – part of the Duncan and Todd Group - answers our questions

When did you first join Duncan and Todd and how did you come to work on the Isle of Skye?

Craig Campbell I started with Duncan and Todd in 2011, when the company took me on as their pre-reg in their Inverness branch, which trades under the name of JM MacDonald. Once qualified, an opportunity became available for the company to open JM MacDonald practice in Portree on the Isle of Skye, very close to the area that I grew up in. Skye had no resident optician, only a travelling clinic every three weeks. Therefore, there was a significant lack of eye care services for this remote community, 115 miles from the nearest hospital eye clinic in Inverness.
