About Parkhurst and Co Styling Opticians
Independent. Family-Run. Patient-Focused.
Parkhurst and Co is a family-led group of independent opticians and healthcare clinics dedicated to exceptional clinical care and considered design. Across Doncaster, Bentley, Thorne, Mexborough and Goldthorpe, generations of families continue to choose us for our expertise, integrity and genuinely personal approach.
Why We Remain Independent
Being independent means we choose what’s best for our patients — not what suits a corporate target.
It means selecting the lenses we trust, curating eyewear collections we believe in, investing in advanced diagnostic technology and giving each consultation the time it deserves.
Independence allows us to place people first — always.

Our Approach
We believe exceptional care is built on time, attention and expertise. Every consultation — whether for eye care or physiotherapy — begins with understanding the individual. We take time to listen, assess and recommend carefully. From advanced eye examinations to considered styling advice and personalised rehabilitation, our focus remains the same: thoughtful, professional care delivered with integrity. Across Doncaster and South Yorkshire, our independent approach allows us to put people first — without compromise.
