Patient Reviews
Jun 29, 2024
Started seeing Dr. Mettu more than almost two years ago for macular degeneration. He was recommended to me by another trusted Duke faculty member who has seen him for years for the same issue. I found Dr. Mettu to be very professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate. I have had to wait for him longer than I’d like but I don’t take it personally. I learned years ago an excellent physician, like Dr. Mettu, is worth waiting for and worth driving a long distance to see.

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.
