What Anderson & Shapiro Eye Care does

Anderson & Shapiro Eye Care (legal name: Anderson & Shapiro Eye Surgeons) is a private ophthalmology and optometry practice founded in 1999 and headquartered at 1200 John Q Hammons Drive, Madison, Wisconsin. The practice is co-founded by Dr. Michael Shapiro and Dr. Nicole Anderson-Weiss and operates as a subsidiary of Surgery Partners, a Brentwood, Tennessee-based healthcare services conglomerate. It provides comprehensive medical and surgical eye care, including LASIK and PRK refractive surgery, premium and standard cataract surgery with intraocular lens implantation, glaucoma management, corneal transplants, general eye exams, and low-vision services. Surgical cases are performed at the affiliated Novamed Surgery Center located in the same building. The practice also operates an in-house optical dispensary selling prescription eyewear and contact lenses.

The clinical technology base includes FDA-approved all-laser LASIK (cleared for US Military pilots and NASA astronauts), digital high-definition prescription lenses with blue light protection, presbyopia-correcting IOLs, and standard ophthalmic diagnostic and surgical equipment. The physician team comprises two ophthalmologists (Dr. Shapiro, Dr. Anderson-Weiss) and one optometrist (Dr. Claire Cordoba), with a total headcount of 11-50 employees.

The business model rests on three revenue streams: insurance-reimbursed medical and surgical ophthalmology (Medicare, Medicare Advantage, Anthem, CIGNA, Humana, UnitedHealthcare, Medicaid of Wisconsin, Quartz, and others); cash-pay elective refractive and premium cataract procedures financed through CareCredit; and optical retail (frames including Eddie Bauer, Lacoste, Carrera, and lenses/contacts). Vision insurance is not accepted; all claims are routed through medical insurance. Go-to-market is sales-led and locally focused, relying on the company website, online scheduling via MyPatientVisit, encrypted provider referrals, and payor network inclusion to drive patient acquisition within the Madison, WI metropolitan area.
