I am a clinician-scientist in ophthalmology, who specializes in caring for patients with glaucoma, and I am dedicated to improving treatments for glaucoma through research. I have a special focus on glaucoma-related to inflammation (uveitic glaucoma), and I work closely with the uveitis specialists at the Center for Ocular Immunology at the Duke Eye Center. My goal is to provide the best possible patient care with an understanding of my patients’ needs and concerns. I grew up in North Carolina and feel privileged to care for patients in North Carolina and the surrounding areas.
