Our group is committed to providing the most cutting edge care available in the world for our patients. We believe that the patient knowledge is critical in understanding their eye disease and being an integral part of the solutions for it. Only in an environment such as ours with exceptional patient satisfaction ratings and clinical outcomes can this type of care thrive and be commonplace.

Clinical Interest for Patients

I specialize in the treatment of all vitreoretinal disorders including age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and retinal detachment. I take care of common retinal disorders and receive many referrals for complex surgeries and medical retinal conditions as well.
