"Dr. Leenheer came in promptly after and was so friendly with adults and our baby alike and was able to assess him by captivating his interests with all sorts of fun toys with bright lights. She was able to prevent unnecessary procedures and tests and his eye health is 'looking' great! We will return for any pediatric ophthalmology needs in the future. We are so lucky to have them as a resource right here in Albuquerque!"

About Family Eye Care

By Family, For Family

Founded in 1972 by Kenneth Goldblum, MD as a solo eye care practice in Albuquerque, this practice steadily gained popularity, through word-of-mouth referrals, by offering warm and personalized service. Todd Goldblum, MD joined the practice in 1995 adding Pediatric Ophthalmology as a specialty to the eye center. With further growth and addition of physicians, our name changed from Goldblum Family Eye Care to Family Eye Care/Children's Eye Center of New Mexico.

​

Family Eye Care/Children's Eye Center of New Mexico is now home to 5 well-trained and highly qualified specialists: Todd Goldblum MD, Rebecca Leenheer MD, John Hickox MD, Krista Heidar MD, and Anne Crisler Cromer, OD. While our primary focus is pediatric ophthalmology & adult strabismus, we still proudly care for adult patients as well. 

​

Despite our enormous growth, we remain committed to our founding values:

  • Treating patients with courtesy, kindness & respect.

  • Providing individualized, personal attention & treatment in a warm & caring manner

  • Taking the necessary time for communication so that patients are fully informed about their condition & care options

  • Abiding by strict ethical & moral standards when discussing diagnosis & treatment possibilities

  • Complete respect for a patient's rights including privacy
