Jamie Ho, OD, FAAO, FCOVD
Optometrist
Dr. Ho is an author, lecturer, and an optometrist specializing in low vision and neuro-rehabilitation. She is a dual fellow of the American Academy of Optometry and College of Optometrist in Vision Development.
After graduating from the Illinois College of Optometry (Chicago, IL), she completed a residency in community health with the New England College of Optometry (Boston, MA) prior to moving to Nashville, Tennessee.
Over time, Dr. Ho has developed significant interest not only on how the visual system works, but how vision comes as part of a symphony of how the brain and body work together.
When not in the office, you can find Dr. Ho hanging out with her family, hiking, cooking, or reading the latest on biohacking.

Ginger - Office Manager
A lifelong Middle Tennessee resident, Ginger brings decades of office management experience—primarily in dentistry, where she found great fulfillment in seeing the life-changing confidence patients gain from a healthy, beautiful smile. After discovering Dr. Ho & her rarely known expertise in the eye–brain connection & her amazing ability to help patients recover or greatly improve their quality of life when they’ve long suffered without adequate answers or treatment from new and old injuries impacting that major connection between our eyes and brain like concussions, strokes, and other types of conditions such as low vision. Ginger quickly became a passionate supporter of the life changing treatment modalities and therapies provided at Ho Vision Group & is committed to raising more awareness for this specialized, life-changing care to the public.
Ginger lives in Franklin with her husband of 18 years, John, and their adorable pup, Harvey. When she’s not at the clinic, she enjoys creating art of all kinds, such as gardening, and floral arranging, but most of all cherishes quality time spent with her young adult children, Kaitlyn and Cameron, and her close-knit family of siblings & adorable toddler nephews, and nieces.
