Overview
I am a native of Ohio but a Blue Devil since I graduated college from Duke University. I returned to my Buckeye roots for my medical training but was happy to return to North Carolina and join the Duke Eye Center. My practice is a comprehensive ophthalmology practice and I welcome all patients that are looking for thorough, efficient and thoughtful care for acute eye problems and early management of chronic eye diseases. My particular interest is in Cataract surgery and aim to provide my patients with the most up-to-date advancements in the fast-growing field, including premium lens implants and laser-assisted cataract surgery. I understand that eyesight is so highly valued by most of us and therefore I do my best to inform patients of all of their options, whether surgical or medical, and to help patients make the best decision for their eyes.

Clinical Research

Providers who actively participate in clinical research are generally at the forefront of the fields and aware of the most up-to-date advances in treatments for their patients.
Duke Eye Center
I’m a retina specialist who takes care of patients who have problems with the back of the eye. When a patient comes to see me, I like getting to know them and their history, so that I can tailor their treatment. My patients come from a variety of different backgrounds, so I find that I often learn as much from them as they do from me. Everybody has a different story and I very much like to learn about the patients to whom I provide care. Duke is a great place at which to work and from which to seek treatment because it’s a very collaborative institution. Everyone works together to do what’s best for the patient. Outside of work, I like to spend as much time as possible with my family. I also enjoy cooking, playing sports and watching sports.
