Overview

I provide medical oversight for comprehensive patients and established cornea patients. Preserving and restoring vision is my passion, and it is a commitment I make to all of my patients. Duke uses the most current technologies and innovations to deliver the latest in care. It gives patients great confidence to know they are being treated by leaders in their field who use a team approach. I came back to Duke in 1996 after earning my medical degree here in 1981. In my spare time, I enjoy playing guitar, reading and traveling.

My practice focuses on the surgical and medical treatment of cornea, anterior segment, and lens disorders in adults and children. I specialize in corneal transplant surgery, cataract surgery with advanced technology lenses, intraocular lens complications, and refractive surgery such as LASIK and PRK. I am fortunate to work at this wonderful institution and in a field where we have the technology to impact lives daily through improvement and customization of vision. I love forming relationships with patients and offering the newest technologies available. Outside of work, I enjoy teaching residents, fellows, and other ophthalmologists both locally and at national meetings.
