Following his graduation from Southern College of Optometry, Dr. Larry Golson began his career as a practitioner in Atlanta. In 2006, he moved to Asheville to pursue his own private practice and a great quality of life in the beautiful WNC mountains. He opened Envision Eyecare “cold” in 2008, with an emphasis on delivering an exceptional eye care experience. His practice has grown from the original team of 3 to the current size of 22 team members and four doctors. Under his leadership, his team has built a sustainable model of delegation and continued growth within their practice by elevating his leaders to operate the practice while he lives part of the year out of state pursuing a coaching and consulting firm: www.SherpaConsulting.net.

A successful consultant and frequent lecturer / guest speaker, Dr. Golson is committed to helping private practice optometry thrive among the increasing competitive pressures from vision plans, private equity, commercial optometry and online optometric products and services. Helping people enjoy life through better organizational health and team functionality is his driving passion.
