Overview

Dr. Dorothy Hendricks has been a pediatric ophthalmologist at Nemours for 16 years. She enjoys treating children as they grow and helping to change their lives. I treat children because of the impact that can be made on a child’s life. Even small beneficial changes to a child’s vision can help emotionally, psychologically, and socially. It’s important for me to help children not feel held back. I’m passionate about being part of a multidisciplinary group that can holistically care for a child. By treating a child from birth to adulthood, I can help improve the vision and overall health of a child; allowing the child to thrive and succeed in whatever they choose to do.
