"During my medical training, I was especially impressed with the tremendous impact an ophthalmologist can have in the lives of those suffering from vision loss. Today, I am fortunate to practice in a time when technology allows me to intervene and cure diseases like never before. Having undergone eye surgery myself, I feel I can relate to the concerns and questions patients may have when anticipating surgery on this delicate area.
