Advanced in Retinal Detachment
Advanced in Retinal Detachment

Overview

I am an ophthalmologist trained in vitreoretinal eye disease. I treat a wide variety of diseases to include medical conditions, such as diabetic-related eye disease and age-related macular degeneration. However, my surgical training allows the management of retinal attachment and macular holes. I was introduced to the field of medicine at an early age by my mother who was a nurse. My father was an entrepreneur and owner of a small business, so I realized the importance of hard work and commitment. In retrospect, I believe that my ability to pursue and achieve my professional goals is a direct result of their drive and sincere work ethic. During my free time, you'll find me running along the greenway preparing for my next race or cycling with my family.

Dr. James is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Retinal Detachment. His top areas of expertise are Retinal Detachment, Choroid Plexus Carcinoma, Diabetic Retinopathy, and Neuroretinitis.
