Our Team

Amber Busche, OD 
Owner/Doctor

Dr. Busche enjoys treating a variety of eye conditions and helping patients find solutions for their unique  vision needs.  Living in Estes Park and enjoying a wide range of outdoor activities gives her valuable insight into the active vision needs of the Estes Valley.  Dr. Busche enjoys spending her days at the office catching up with patients while assessing ocular health and loves giving advice on the latest eyewear.  Dr. Busche is from Iowa and she received her doctorate in Optometry at the Southern College of Optometry in Memphis, TN. Outside the office she is a lover of animals, hiking, good food and time with family & friends.  With many family and friends scattered across the county, Dr. Busche likes to find time to travel and catch up with everyone in person.   

Aaron Busche
Co-owner/ordering department

While you may recognize Aaron from the front desk during your last visit (or you might not recognize him due to his ever-changing facial hair) he is now in a role that allows him time to focus on his true passion; his real estate business.  He is the sounding board for making large business decisions since he is married to Dr. Busche and he places all of the eyewear orders for Aspen Eyecare.  He is very happy about his ability to break free from the set hours of the front desk and have more flexibility to help his real estate clients, whether that be educating, assisting in selling, assisting in buying or investing.  Give him a shout as he would love to grab a cup of coffee with you and discuss your real estate goals! #970-470-9962 Outside of the office, Aaron is busy remodeling his home with Dr. Busche and enjoys working out, playing guitar and volunteering with Meals on Wheels through the local Crossroads Ministry.  He and Dr. Busche can be found most evenings or weekends walking their three golden retrievers or spending time at the dog park.

Katie grew up on a Guest Ranch called Peaceful Valley just outside of Lyons, Colorado. She attended high school in Lyons and later graduated from Colorado State University with a degree in Equine Sciences.  She has completed two internships with Walt Disney World, one in Vet Medical Records, which led to eight years of employment with Walt Disney.  Katie moved back to Colorado in 2014 to be closer to family.   She currently volunteers with the Rooftop Rodeo and is on the Board for the Estes Park Western Heritage Foundation and the Board for the Ace High Rough Stocky Academy bronc riding school.

Aspen, Ace & Abraham
​​Office Pups

Aspen, Ace and Abraham aka The Three Stooges are our three English crème golden retrievers.  They have a part-time gig acting as the mascots of Aspen Eyecare.  They can be found by our sides at community events or entertaining us behind the scenes at the office (mostly during slow times - since some of the pups (primarily Abraham) are still working on their manners).  They give love to all they meet and help us rehabilitate foster pups on the side.
