Two (of many) monumental mentors who’ve shaped me into the clinician and surgeon that I am today 🙏🏾 Grateful for their guidance throughout my time in residency. While I’m not going into plastics or retina, I’ll always incorporate their teaching!

I surgically repaired two traumatic open globes in one day. Please please PLEASE wear eye protection when working with machinery/tools involving metal on metal contact. One mistake can result in a lifetime of vision loss.
