Daniel Eckermann OD

Chief of the Optometry

VA Salem health care

Dr. Eckermann is the Chief of the Optometry at the Salem VA Health Care System.

My interest in veterans healthcare began when I completed a residency in hospital-based optometry at the VA Medical Center in Chillicothe, Ohio, in 1985. I started working at the Salem VA later that year, and ever since then I have had the honor and privilege of providing eye care services to veterans and serving as Chief of the Optometry.
