Biography
I am an ophthalmologist who specializes in diagnosing and treating eye diseases with an emphasis on issues that impact the retina. I regularly see adult and adolescent patients for conditions including diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, uveitis and retinal detachment, and I perform vitreoretinal surgeries.
My extensive training and hands-on experience in treating a diverse range of retinal diseases and uveitis cases has given me a solid foundation and the skills to tackle the most complex eye cases. I stay updated on the latest advancements to ensure my patients receive the most effective and innovative treatments available. Treating these challenging conditions also often requires collaborative team efforts and I’m proud to work with such exceptional colleagues here at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center.
I am deeply committed to delivering compassionate, personalized care throughout each patient’s health care journey. I prioritize building strong relationships with my patients and I always take the time to understand their unique needs and concerns.
My experience in academic medicine has profoundly shaped my career path. The mentorship I received inspired me to pursue a career that combines excellent patient care with rigorous academic research. These experiences also fueled my passion for teaching and mentoring the next generation of ophthalmologists, ensuring that the knowledge and skills I have gained are passed on. My role includes serving as an assistant professor of Ophthalmology.
