Overview
Dr. Taylor Allard completed undergraduate studies at North Carolina State University and earned a Doctor of Optometry at the Pennsylvania College of Optometry. Practice is at the White Oak Crossing office on White Oak Road in Garner, serving southern Wake County and the Raleigh suburbs.
Clinical certifications and interests fall into three areas: ocular disease, contact lenses and pediatrics. That combination covers most of what a family practice actually needs, from a four-year-old’s first proper examination to a grandparent’s glaucoma monitoring, and it means children with eye turns, focusing problems or reading difficulty are assessed properly rather than passed along.
There is a stated bias in how the exam is run toward explaining rather than prescribing: helping people see their best while teaching them why eye health matters and what their own results mean. Memberships include the North Carolina Optometric Society, the American Optometric Association and Prevent Blindness North Carolina, a body whose entire purpose is catching avoidable sight loss early.
Outside the clinic the time goes to family and friends, music, sports and working out.

Questions Patients Ask
How do I book an eye exam with Dr. Allard?
Call the Garner-White Oak Crossing office in Garner, North Carolina on 919-861-9177 to book an eye exam or a contact lens appointment. Ask for the first available slot with Dr. Allard by name, say whether the visit is a routine exam, a contact lens fitting or an eye problem, and have your vision or medical plan details to hand so cover can be checked before you arrive.
What should I bring to my first visit with Dr. Allard?
Bring photo ID and your vision and medical insurance cards, your current glasses and the boxes or prescription for your contact lenses, a list of every medicine and eye drop you use, and any previous eye records or retinal scans. Mention diabetes, high blood pressure, thyroid disease or a family history of glaucoma, because these change what gets examined. Your pupils may be dilated, which leaves vision blurry and light sensitive for a few hours, so bring sunglasses and plan for someone else to drive if you are unsure.
