Ophthalmology | Pediatrics

I am a board certified ophthalmologist with additional fellowship training in pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus. Though much of my practice is dedicated to infants and children I enjoy seeing adults particularly those with neurological conditions and double vision. I’ve practiced at St. Luke’s University Hospital continuously since 1994 in a multi specialty group practice which serves all age groups and encompasses virtually every eye subspecialty.

My wife and I have raised two daughters. Together with them, we developed a unique product to solve mud build up in sport cleats that is now sold nationally under the brand name CleatGrip by MissionAthleteCare and is patent pending.  I have an additional US Patent that was granted for the application of thermoplastic coatings to threaded closures, and together with Wilson Ophthalmics developed a device to examine eyes of premature infants.
