Welcome to Insight Eyecare & Eyewear
Your Optometrist in Chandler, AZ

Growing up in North Dakota, Dr. Heetland developed a strong appreciation for family values and believes in a good work ethic. He and his wife, Loree, married in 1994 and have two children. They have lived in Chandler, AZ since 1999.

Dr. Slaugh was born in Utah and was quickly moved to Germany because his dad was in the Air Force while he was growing up. During this time he moved from North Dakota, back to Germany, then to California, to Kansas, to Idaho, to Virginia, back to Utah, to Indiana, and then finally to Arizona. He did also get to play college basketball a couple years during his undergrad degree-and to this day still loves to play basketball.
