About Me

Dr. Heather A. Stiff is a board-certified ophthalmologist who completed fellowship training in pediatric ophthalmology and adult strabismus at the University of Iowa. She was born and raised in Columbus, OH and received her undergraduate degree from Hope College in Holland, MI. She then returned to Columbus for her medical school training at Ohio State University College of Medicine. She went on to complete her internship, residency, and fellowship at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics. Dr. Stiff is excited to continue her career at Froedtert Hospital and the Medical College of Wisconsin. She will be actively involved in patient care, as well as education and research within the Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences.

Being an ophthalmologist allows me the great pleasure of making significant differences in the quality of life of my patients. Whether it be performing surgery to correct double vision and eye misalignment, or prescribing glasses and patching therapy for a child with amblyopia, I feel honored to care for each and every one of my patients. I highly value communication and make it a priority to educate and thoroughly discuss a diagnosis so that the patient can be an active participant in the treatment plan. I enjoy forming strong relationships with my patients as we go through the journey of their care together, as a team.
