"I enjoy working with patients to achieve their best possible vision. My ultimate goal is to be a good communicator and provide my patients with the necessary information and resources so that they can make the best possible decision regarding their eye care.
I found ophthalmology to be one of the most rewarding fields in medicine as it offers the unique opportunity to improve a person’s quality of life."
