Overview

I specialize in treating patients with drooping eyelids, under-eye bags, and various eyelid concerns, including the removal of lumps, bumps, and even cancerous lesions around the eyes. My work also includes reconstructive procedures and addressing issues with the eye’s tear drainage system. Beyond medical care, I believe everyone deserves to look and feel like their best self. That’s why I offer cosmetic procedures such as upper and lower eyelid blepharoplasty (for under-eye bags) and eyebrow lifts. Outside of work, I love diving into new languages, getting creative with mini art projects around the house, and challenging myself with baking recipes inspired by The Great British Bake Off.
