Summary

  • I am a surgical/medical general ophthalmologist that trained under some of the best at UC San Francisco, Medical school, and Stanford, was Chief Resident (when there were no fellowships). I am 1st in my area to do Symfony lenses, iStent & Xen glaucoma. I do trauma, oculoplastics, neuro-opth and refractive cataract surgery. Im currently conducting clinical trials of “nerve regeneration” using my own “combination of medications, surgery and supplements” for optic atrophy (either glaucoma, Trauma, ischemic, Lyme’s Disease or disc drusen)& have proof of CNS regeneration. I provide concierge care at “insurance rates” & find my experiences as a surgical patient (20 neck surgeries) gives me more empathy & ability to speak “in layman’s terms” & relate with the patients.
