One of the best there is. I've had so many retina issues over the years that I owe it to him. He's aggressive and at the same time very prudent. A no nonsense kind of surgeon.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
