My bio
I am a fellowship-trained ophthalmologist in cornea, external diseases, and anterior segment surgery. I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania with a degree in biochemistry and earned my medical degree from Baylor College of Medicine. I completed a residency in ophthalmology at the University of South Florida where I served as chief resident. Then concluded a cornea fellowship at Tufts University/New England Eye Center and Ophthalmic Consultants of Boston. My clinical interests include cataract surgery, corneal transplants, and ocular surface diseases. I have also participated in clinical and research studies for collagen cross-linking. I am a member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology and the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery.
