Eye Institute

The most rewarding part of being an oculoplastic surgeon is helping each patient accomplish their own goals, from improving vision to how they see themselves. I am passionate about helping people on their journey by listening to the patient's perspective and what matters most to them. My goals are to effectively communicate treatment options, create a care plan together and help my patients throughout their recovery and onward. It is an honor and privilege to care for the full spectrum of oculoplastic conditions in patients of all ages and backgrounds. Oculoplastic surgery is constantly evolving, and I am committed to combining the newest treatments with compassionate patient care.
