He cares for patients with retinal detachments and tears, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, retinal vascular disorders, macular holes, epiretinal membranes, ocular injuries and other retinal disorders and diseases. He recently completed a Surgical Retina Fellowship at Retina Associates Chicago/Cook County Hospital System and served as Chief Resident at LSUHSC-Shreveport Ophthalmology before that.
