Every year, there are new advances being made in eye care - advances that can help you see more clearly and more comfortably. As your eye doctor, I want to make sure you always receive informed, up-to-date care. And so I've made sure I have the educational background and up to the minute training you and your sight deserve.
For example, I've taken two years of training at Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, one of the best eye care centers in the country. And for six years, I was the clinic director of Castleman Eye Center, which gave me extensive experience in eye disease treatment and postoperative care."
