Dr. Stefanie G. Schuman
Overview
I am a Retinal Ophthalmologist and completed my fellowship at Duke. I joined the stellar Retina faculty here to provide exceptional care to patients. My approach with patients is to explain their retinal condition, and answer any questions they have. I am excited to be part of a team that provides the latest imaging technology to diagnose retinal disease, including macular diseases, vascular conditions, diabetic retinopathy, and medication related toxicities. I provide patients with all their options to treat their condition with the latest advancements.
