About Us

Complete Family Eyecare was founded in 2010 with a vision of providing unique eye care services to Prior LakeBurnsvilleLakevilleSavage,  EaganApple Valley and South Minneapolis-Saint Paul Metro area.

Optometrist Dr. Steve Reinders served at Park Nicollet Clinic for 17 years before opening his own eye clinic (Complete Family Eyecare) with the goal of providing a more personal, patient focused experience in eye care. Together with his wife Jennifer, they built CFE from an empty shell into a state-of-the-art eye clinic.

Our clinic is continuing to grow! Dr. Sarah Board joined the team October 2022. While utilizing the most current technologies to address all of your eye care needs, Dr. Steve and Dr. Sarah,  along with our entertaining staff strive to make your experience an enjoyable and educational event – instead of just another dull medical visit.

Optometrist and Owner

I grew up on a farm in Southwestern MN and graduated from Windom High School.  After picking rocks, walking beans and feeding cattle for 18 years, I attended the University of MN for undergraduate studies and after several grueling years of school, received a Doctorate in Optometry from Pacific University in 1993.  I then served the Southern suburbs while on staff at Park Nicollet Clinic in Burnsville for 17 years before opening Complete Family Eyecare in 2010 with my wife Jennifer.

I have been married to Jennifer since 2003 and we have two daughters, Abigail and Isabelle (a.k.a. “Nitro and Glycerin”). When not looking at eyeballs, I enjoy waterskiing and lounging on Prior Lake where I have lived for 25 years and serve as a Prior Lake Association Board Member.

Optometrist

Dr. Sarah comes to us from Lakeville where she lives with her husband and 2 adorable (yet wild) kiddos, Hudson and Rosalie. She grew up in Apple Valley and graduated from Eastview High School. She later received her Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from Hamline University before completing her Doctor of Optometry degree from Pacific University (just like Dr Steve, but many, many years after!). Before coming to Complete Family Eyecare, she spent 6+ years practicing in Edina. She strives to make every patient encounter a positive experience while assuring all vision needs are thoroughly addressed. On her days off, you can find her at the zoo, walking around the lake, or just busy running after her young children! She cannot wait to meet you and your family!

Shout out to Dr. Steve Reinders and his great team! I had an urgent eye issue over the weekend that made me very worried. Within a few hours, Dr. Steve was able to see me for an urgent appointment to provide much-needed reassurance (on a Sunday, no less)! This type of high-level care cannot be found just anywhere. Thank you for your expertise and your concern to diagnose the new flashes and floaters I had developed to rule out a more serious retinal tear. You’ve more than earned our family’s business and we will be back for our continued eye care in the future. Highly recommend. Many thanks!!!

Because Dr. Reinders is a personal friend, it is easy to express my appreciation of his work and might be considered overly gratuitous to review him in such a complimentary fashion, but in this case, which involves Angle Closure Glaucoma, I must be candid and truthful. His office truly deserves my sincere praise and admiration. As my friend and personal optometrist, Steve was aware of my struggling eye sight and occasional eye pain. Over a period of a couple weeks he had me dutifully stop in to his Prior Lake office for eye pressure checks and tests as he closely observed my vision changes and condition. One afternoon while near his local office, with moderate pain in one eye, and in spite of my hesitation to again bother him, I walked into his office very late in the afternoon, unannounced, explaining the eye pain to Ashley and Jennifer. Because Steve was at the Elko New Market office, Dr. Sarah Board and Jennifer quickly ran tests on me and determined that urgent action was needed as my eye pressure was far exceeding a normal range. After contacting Steve, he immediately drove to the Prior Lake office and in doing so called his ophthalmologist colleagues in hopes of getting an urgently-needed appointment for me. Because it was after 5 p.m. Dr. Reinders then made immediate arrangements with the emergency room at U of M Hospitals for urgent admittance. Steve not only personally drove me to the hospital but he stayed at my bedside in ER and then in my room from approximately 6 p.m. until 12:15 in the morning as I struggled with severe pain. After departing, Dr. Reinders was successful in arranging for me to have immediate eye surgery at 8 a.m. the next morning to alleviate the severe pain and damage resulting from the very unusual condition of Angle Closure Glaucoma. His efforts resulted in the excellent procedures he and his colleagues performed over a three week period to address this serious condition and ensure the long term quality of my vision. My pal. Of course. And there are great eye doctors in our community but Dr. Steve Reinders has demonstrated that he goes beyond the call of duty for his patients. I’m proof. Ray J Joachim Prior Lake

We love this clinic and we are thrilled about them opening a practice right in Elko New Market. My family put their trust in this practice years ago. As a grown adult, we moved back to the area, and now how put our family’s trust in their practice. We love Dr.Steve! He is awesome! He is thorough, and always asks all the questions that I have. I am awful about picking out a pair of glasses by my self. But the staff? Amazing! They always help me find the perfect fit. We have such great conversations, and of course some Chuckles in between. I 100% would recommend this practice to our family, friends, and community members!
