Patient Reviews
Oct 29, 2023
He was highly recommended by another ophthalmologist. He has many patients, but keeps on moving with dispatch and courtesy. He answers questions posed to him and does not hurry his patients. His treatments have contributed to the retardation of my macular degeneration and even improved my vision.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
