Originally from Hong Kong, Dr. Bowie Wong lived in New Jersey and New York before her family settled in Connecticut. She finished her Human Biology degree at University of California, San Diego and moved to Boston to pursue her career in medicine where she graduated in 2023 from New England College of Optometry.
During her time in optometry school, Dr. Wong gained clinical experience in Myopia Control with renowned Dr. Vera Diaz in Boston, MA. In addition, she had the privilege of learning specialty lenses such as scleral lenses and RGPs from international expert Dr. Edward Boshnick in Miami, FL. She then gained experience in ocular diseases such as glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration while at Brockton Veterans Affair in Massachusetts. Later, she gained her Spanish-speaking skills while at Dimock Community Center. She finished her last rotation at Richlin & Associates in Beverly Hills, CA where she utilized innovative approaches such as amniotic membranes and Intense Pulse Laser for complex ocular conditions.
In her free time Dr. Wong enjoys traveling to new places and learning about unique cultures. She is fluent in English and Cantonese with proficient enough Spanish to conduct an eye exam. She hopes to combine her love of traveling with optometry by participating in mission trips to under-served countries in the future.
