October | November 2008 Dr. James Hunt Honored as MOA Optometrist of the Year Branson, Mo-- Dr. James Hunt, with practices in Doniphan and Piedmont, Missouri, was presented with the Optometrist of the Year Award at the Missouri Optometric Association’s (MOA) 2008 Awards luncheon on October 10 held at the Chateau on the Lake in Branson, Missouri. The Optometrist of the Year award is presented to an optometrist who has proven to be an outstanding practitioner. In order to qualify for the award, a candidate must demonstrate a mode of practice that shows concern and involvement within the association and the profession and make a significant contribution to the community. His involvement in the association includes co-editor of the Vision Newsletter, MOA Trustee, MOA Exhibit Hall Chairman, Paraoptometric Liaison, multiple office holder in his society, and MOA committee member. “This is the highest compliment a doctor of optometry can receive from his profession,” Dr. Hunt said of his honor. Dr. Hunt is a graduate of Arkansas State University and the Inter American University School of Optometry. Dr. Hunt did receive the Leadership Award in recognition for his excellent performance while in optometry school. He has been a clinical examiner for the National Board of Examiners in Optometry, and is an associate faculty member at the Inter American University School of Optometry. The MOA has also recognized Dr. Hunt as the Young Optometrist of the Year at its annual Convention in 2007 in St. Louis, Missouri. According to Dr. Hunt, “I was completely shocked when I was announced as the winner of this year’s award; because I have not heard of any MOA member winning Young Optometrist of the Year and then Optometrist of the Year at the following convention. I am beyond words to have been named Optometrist of the Year. It is an honor just to be nominated by my peers.” Dr. Hunt enjoys practicing optometry in the Ozarks of Missouri and being with his wife, Evelyn, their four kids--Bryanna, Rachel, Jack, and James--along with three grandchildren. 6
