I am a board certified ophthalmologist with fellowship subspecialty training in retinal diseases.

I began my journey in medicine intending to study internal medicine and then cardiology. After a two week elective in ophthalmology I discovered that most every systemic disease could have an ocular manifestation. I changed courses and decided to pursue ophthalmology and then retinal diseases.

The majority of patients that I see have chronic underlying conditions like diabetes, hypertension and nutritional deficiencies. Many are surprised to know that managing and reversing the underlying conditions will substantially improve visual prognosis. I guide patients who have conditions like glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and a host of other chronic conditions how to optimize diet and lifestyle for better sight and health.

I am a proud member of PCRM and make lifestyle a key element of my approach.
