Our Eye Doctors

Dr. Rachel Bostelman is a graduate of The Ohio State University College of Optometry and is excited to provide exceptional eye care for Henry County and the surrounding area. Dr. Bostelman began practicing optometry in 2007, joining her father Dr. Robert Limbird, who retired after 40 years in the field. She enjoyed 10 years working alongside him and was able to learn from him and expand upon his high quality of patient care. Dr. Bostelman enjoys eye care for all ages, including infant and pediatric eye exams. She also is very successful at fitting bifocal contact lenses and maximizing her patients’ vision with the newest technology available.

Dr. Bostelman, and her husband, Brian, are happy to be living in the Napoleon area where they both grew up. They have two children, Meredith and Grant, that are the excitement and joy of their lives.

Dr. Bostelman also enjoys being active with their church, Napoleon Lions Club, the United Way of Henry County, and being involved with LifeWise Academy. She enjoys watching her kids participate in sports and 4-H and competing in triathlons. Vision and eye health are complicated and wonderful miracles we all have to use. Dr. Bostelman takes great pride in providing comprehensive care of that system for all her patients for their lifetime of eye care needs.
