About Me
I am a board-certified ophthalmologist with a focus on diseases of the cornea, cataracts, and refractive surgery. I treat a broad range of conditions, including keratoconus, Fuch’s dystrophy, dry eye disease, and many more. In addition to being a devoted clinician and surgeon, I conduct basic science research and stay up to date with the latest scientific advances in my fields.
