Overview
The majority of my practice involves providing highly specialized medical and surgical care of the retina, specifically the macula, which is the portion of the retina that’s necessary for good vision. I’m also interested in complex cataract and lens surgery. I strongly believe in an open, forthright partnership with my patients and their other doctors when dealing with serious eye problems. I bring this approach to all aspects of patient care, and I’m dedicated to helping my patients however I can.
